Come
on! Cheer up! This was only your second Selectividad exam! You will
make it better soon! It is all about practice; the
more you practice, the better: better results, and it will tire you
less and less. I believe that we learn by practice and
remember: Tomorrow's
battle is won during today's practice.
Let's
get to work!
