Lessons About Confidence The first day I studied Math with Mr. Peter was surprising. He gave us a test with three different sets of questions: easy and hard ones for 10 points, easier ones for 8 points, and very easy ones for 6 points. He said we could pick which set to do. I chose the second set, like everyone else. A week later, Mr. Peter gave back our tests. We found out that whoever chose a set would get that set's score, whether the answers were right or wrong. The class leader asked why. Mr. Peter said he wanted to test our confidence. We all want perfect scores, but only a few dare to try. Mr. Peter's test taught us a lesson: Some things may seem hard at first, but if we don't face challenges with confidence, we won't know what we can achieve.
