| In the past couple of years one thing that's become more apparent about me is that I'm very oversensitive and get upset easily. My brother has emphasised this to me as have my parents. Also at school, even advice from teachers that sounds slightly negative (but is constructive) can upset me a bit, o... |

I do set myself very high academic standards, though I do get upset when I fail to meet them. In my A-Levels so far, that has been quite common.

| For some reason. I tend to be generally stressed when I'm at school. I've got absolutely no idea why, but it's not a very nice feeling. I'm soon to start my A2-Levels so the stress is an important factor of my performance this year. It can slow my progress a bit (probably because people with Asperge... |
