i got my marks back today so i’ve been thinking about how bullshit it is that some subjects have assessment that isn’t even that subject’s thing
like in english, i am very good at english, i can write and analyse and all that at an A level of quality, but i haven’t got an A in english for YEARS because i cannot do speeches. like there’s ONE assessment that screws up my entire grade every time because speaking in front of people is terrifying.
and then in art, i have a hard time getting an A in art because 50% of the assessment isn’t even art. it’s visual art diary and essay. and even though i get 95-100% on Actually Doing Art, i get a low A at most because i’m not great at the other stuff. it’s bullshit.
