ya' know. . . when you get two questions wrong on a 50 question test, it's, "meh, whatever".
. . .
but when you get one question wrong on a 50 question test
. . .
that shit's painful.
. . .
the question in. . . well, question, being one that i had thought i misread and decided to change my answer from correct to incorrect.
. . .
to know that i almost got a perfect score. . .
. . .
and then fucked up in the worst way possible.
that shit. . .
. . .
. . . it fucking hurts.
so i urge you: if you have a friend that criess over a 99% on a test while you and the rest of the class may have gotten 80s or lower. . .
. . .
please understand that there is still pain associated with a score where they only missed one question.
. . . because that is shit that can cause real inner turmoil of doubt in their ability to perform.
just because they got the best score.
. . .
a 99% can be the most emotionally painful thing one can experience.
