Post-Block Test Traumatism

Block test ended some time back and the aftermath of it still lingers around within me. We received back our mark scripts back before chinese new year.The results for me were below what i expected after completing the paper and far below my expectations for the subjects. Starting with maths, results were 10 over marks below what i predicted. From this block test i realised that Hardwork is never proportional to results.Why are others doing so much better than me despite the so little effort they put in relative to mine? Does born smart play a part here? Or is there some "behind doors mugging" going on? While giving a impression of not studying at all. I'm sure everyone has seen alot of these hypocrites around.Maybe doing well in one subject unexpectedly would be luck or/and talent. How about those doing well in all subjects?
I have received only my maths and physics paper back,they are E and AO respectively.Chemistry wouldn't be any better i guess. This has kept my mood down for days.Imagine having this kind of results during the promos. Maths has been my main concern. The amount of effort i put in isn't giving me the yield i deserve. Maths is about practice and im sure i did enough of them.Maybe its the bit of talent which everyone else has which i don't.Hardwork isn't enough to make up for it.
The results not only served as a wake up call,it has forced me to reflect.How did all this happen?What did i not do right? This Chinese new year break came in handy. A time for me to take a break from the heavy work load and a time to relax,to recover from the setback. Like others maybe have said, this is only a block test not be worried about. However this is not just a test like others.It has served its purpose.
