Model Answer 1:
I am a student of graduate level and passing my third phase of this level in the
University of Malaya. I am studying economics here and recently attended on
my year ending exam. It was an important exam for me
as the failure on the
exam will not allow me to get promoted to the next phase.
Bachelor of economics is one of the most sought subjects in the University of
Malaya and I am studying the course here for last four years. My final year is
going on and by the end of this year, I will complete the course. This course is a
bit tougher than the other bachelor course as the course deals with the
fundamentals of economics. The course is divided into several phases and the
topics turn tougher with the passing of one year or phase. So, in my third
phase, it was a bit difficult for me to cross the barriers of the course. The
course –
Econometrics, was a bit tougher than the other courses and thus the
university authority scheduled the course at the last day of the exam. Even,
there was a day off for preparation of the course.
Now I am 22 years old and when I appeared on the course last December, I
was 21. This is the average age for the Malaysian people to study in the
universities. In my early days, people used to admit their kids into elementary
schools when they were six or seven years old but now the scenario has been
changed. Most of the people admit their kids at
an early age when they are
four or five. In fact, the citizens of Malaysia are tryi9ng to cope with the
advancement of the world and thus they are admitting their children into
schools and other educational institutions at an early age so that they could
cope up with the changes of the modern life. Often I ponder about the issue
and if I could sit for the exam again now, I could have done better in the score.
With the passing of time, people become experienced
and their mental faculty
enriches and expands. So, if I could have sat again for the Econometrics now, I
could have answered the questions in more productive manner.
Generally, the bachelor exams are held for four hours at a stretch and
Econometrics was not an exception here. The exam was held for four long
hours. Since my preparation for the course was not up to the mark, it was
difficult for me to answer all the questions. Some of the questions were out of
our syllabus and the students created chaos for sometimes
with the invigilator
present at the exam hall. When the authority acknowledged their mistake and
assured that they would provide the marks against the questions, the situation
came under control. The exam began again. The exam began at 12.00 pm and
ended at 4.00 pm. The entire hours were struggling for me. It appeared that
the theory of relativity started working for me. Frequently I was watching at
my wristwatch and it appeared that time was not passing. Actually, it happens
to everyone when they want the time to pass.
At that moment, everything
turns slower and the moments are irritating.
The Econometrics exam was important for me in several aspects. Firstly, it was
the last exam of the year and if I fail in the exam, I have to retake the course
again with my junior batch. This was really a shocking event for me that I
would attend the exam with my juniors. Moreover, the
failure on the exam will
delay my promotion to the next and final level of the graduation. As a result,
everything with me will be delayed. If I am late to complete my graduation, I
will not be able to start my career early. Currently, the employment situation is
Malaysia is well but it takes considerable times to establish someone into any
specific position. So, I, in fact, was in a hurry to complete my bachelor of
Economics. I did not have spare time with me to
spend for the betterment of
the course. I was trying to complete my academic activities as early as possible
and thus the exam was of great importance to me.
