Re: 11 plus

I never saw my results, but I do remember being very upset that I hadn't passed......and I cried because I felt worthless, and felt that I would never amount to much. Motivation was the key....and later in my life was the right time for me to do what I wanted. I had also developed some life skills by this time....life skills are very under-rated.
