Middle School Test Analysis

There was a moment in life when I experienced a failure in passing a huge test to get accepted into one of the best middle schools in Baltimore Md . I Studied and prompted myself weeks before the testing date . I spent four hours a day each week to studied as much as I could . The test was to be given on a Friday of the year 2005 .For two weeks I studied alone and some days I asked my friends or family to review my study material with me . It seemed as if this test would determine what middle-school, high-school and eventually what college I was going to attend .
On the day of the test I had the best support from my mom and dad about doing great on the test . In the morning I ate big breakfast including eggs, bacon , and waffles so I could stay focused throughout the test . I packed snacks and drinks for the break and immediately left to be on time at the testing center .When I arrived at the school testing center I was amazed at what the school looked like inside .
I performed two points away from the accepting rate for the middle school and my application was rejected . I was so close to getting accepted but when I recieved the disappointing news I knew that my family would be disappointed at me because this was a great opportunity . I began to blame myself for not working hard enough and that I could of performed better .
When I told my family that I failed to meet the requirements for getting accepted into the school ; they were not angry neither dissapointed . The most rememberable thing my grandfather told me was " The people with the bigger hearts are the ones who always succeed but the people with the smaller hearts tend not to be as successful as the people with the bigger hearts ."His sayings meant to me that the people who fail but get up again are so much stronger than the people who fail and don't try again . Once I accepted my failure as a lesson I used that for my fundamentals for my later success
