Before the math part of the test I was nervous because I thought I was going to do badly. Also because I thought I wasnt going to concentrate. During the math part of the test I notice that it was pretty darn easy. I used some strategies that my teach showed to do while taking the test. After the test I felt proud of myself because I think I did well in the test.

Something I could do better next year is to pay more attention in every class. Also to do even better on the test we have to take deep breaths every now and then. I think taking breaths will help us to do well on the test because we can concentrate even more. Finally to do even better on the next CST we have to take brakes once in a while not to long neither. I also think we all should have in our minds a good score so we can do even better.
