I received my TOEIC result today. I got 360 marks out of 495 marks in reading and 280 marks out of 495 marks in listening. Although 640 marks out of total marks is not an outstanding score in this exam. I know I should be happy I could get over 600 marks.
For reading part, I couldn t have completed reading for nearly 3 reading comprehensions for nearly 20 questions that meaned I lost around 100 marks. I assumed all answers were incorrected. But I could obtain 360 marks out of the total of 495 marks minus 100 marks. I definely believe I have an improvement in those questions relating to grammer and usage. I should be happy.
For listening part, I got 280 marks, that was similar to the marks I had got in online rehearsal test. So far so good. over 50% of listening questions I couldn t definitely say I had made a correct answers during the exam.
I guessed I could only get around 5XX marks in this exam. But now I got 640 marks. Should I be excited about the scores?
I know I still need to try my effort because this is only a reasonable score for me. There is still room for improvement.
My feeling is neither happy nor unhappy because I only feel lonely in the real world.
One of the reason was that I told the result to my friend in my afternoon meeting. I just wanted to share my happiness, but the response was that "you might be overestimated."
My first response was "fuck you", of course I didn t say by mouth. But the second response was "I just want to share my happiness, "how-so? I just hope you to say something to celebrate me."
I just told him "There was no more than 60 minutes from the time I knew my result to the time you had spoken such speaking. Shouldn t I be changed my mood so quickly?"
