In the examination for high school, I should have got tens of more marks if I had given priority to the questions I was familiar with. I can n

35、ot explain why I was so stubborn at that time and was quite illogical when dealing with an important examination, which directly resulted in many questions unfinished, and of course resulted in my failure to enter a key high school.I always keep this lesson in mind and promise myself to put first things first this time for the coming NMET examination.
