i took this year's postgraduate entrance exam two month ago, today i got the results, and it is far poorer than i've expected. so dissapointed... my whole year's labour gives me nothing but dissapointment. what do you do when you are fooled by life?

I try to find the best in the situation and learn from it, although I know that is easy to say and often harder to do. I don't want to be nasty, but I teach and many of my students do not apply themselves as much as they can and then at the end of the year they are disappointed and I could have told them they would be right from the start. However, I respect people who have given it their best, regardless of the result. In some cases a result is just a means to an end - a pathway to somewhere else, and, although the results may not be great, they may be sufficient to get you to that next stage. It's then up to the individual to try to work out if and where improvement is needed. Has that happened in this case?

thank you for your post the school i applied for is one of the best in my country, i feel bad more because the results told me that i am not so excellent as i thought i was. you are right, a result is a means to an end, now i shuld think about my next step.
