Test Day

Today in western civilization class we took a big test. The test wasn't that difficult yet I still got a c on it. In the class, the test was mostly about Hellenistic Culture in Ancient Greece and so on and so forth. The test was about 33 questions and I got a good amount of them right, I think because I studied. After the test he immediately graded them and passed them back out to the class. I was one of the last ones to finish so I got my test back later then everyone else.
