I'm not smart, but for me, exams are easy. Pissed about during my entire high school life ,0 revision but got mostly As and A* in GCSE. I barely turned up to year 12 last year with about 40% attendance, no revision and got ACB which I don't see as bad at all. I'm just cracking into my A2 exams now, and despite having the same level of motivation and attendance as year 12, with just the night before to revise, I walked out of my psychology exam thinking that could not have gone better and answering every question with full indepth answers from the textbook. Call me a massive cocky pr*ck but I believe that it is not an indication of intelligence- most of the people that walked out of that psychology exam the other day complaining about how badly they did, are much, MUCH more intelligent than me in my opinion. I think that 1. bright kids doing badly in exams and 2. people like me that (annoyingly I know) pass with no or little effort both show that the exam system is pretty damn unfair. I guess the only thing to credit my exam success is, is my short term memory (cramming the night before). Why should my short term memory push me to a uni where (based on my past records) it appears I would not be motivated to succeed at all? Speaking generally here since I actually have an unconditional. Just posting my thoughts, probably doesn't make much sense
