The last weeks have been really stressful and my exam prep suffered greatly, the last two days I was catatonic with anxiety, I was going through the options of whether it's better to pass with a bad grade or to throw and get more prep time (and more stress) for another attempt.

Well the questions were absolute softballs, compared to what I was preparing. My anxiety kept tripping me up so the prof had to give me hints otherwise I would have scored even higher! So even through all the sicknesses, the current high levels of stress and sickening anxiety and 4 hours of sleep I got freaking 85%!

Also in large parts thanks to my wife who basically carried me through this period.
