"The Most" Assessment

What a tiring assessment! Throughout all English assessments that I’ve encountered in year 11, this is the most tiring, the most time consuming, the most problems with it, and even the most procrastinated assessment.

This assessment is a bunch of huge terrors for me. The started with the assessment notification. There is no assessment notification that terrrify me so much like this one did. I couldn’t imagine how am I going to finish five pieces of academic writing on time with a good quality. This is a new thing for me because I’ve never completed five pieces of academic writing in three weeks. One other major problem that makes this assessment even harder to complete is that I had to be absent from school for 6 days due to some trainings for computer competition and I missed 10 periods of English class. That means I lost 6 hours and 40 minutes of English class which I could spend some parts of my assessment. So, I should spend more time at home to complete this assessment.

Even though this assessment is the hardest one, I realize that it is the most useful one. I know that academic writing is very important for my academic career, as I am going to write lots of writings in university and at work too. I learned that academic writing isn’t just all about essays, but there are a lot of types of academic writing. I also learn that an effective thesis statement is the key to a good academic writing. Moreover, I learn specifically about my technological issue which is hybrid cars. I learn that hybrid cars indeed reduce the greenhouse gases emissions. I also learn that nowadays, car producers are not competing in producing conventional cars, hybrid cars otherwise.

There is one thing that I tried to learn from this assessment but I failed, learning not to procrastinate. I still couldn’t change my profile as a procrastinator. I procrastinated this assessment until the last night before the due date, and it makes this assessment even more tiring. So, I’m hoping that I could learn that I should not procrastinate.
After all, I’m trying to think positively that this assessment is beneficial for me.
