Tips for my university entrance exam

Hi, this is my first blog. To be honest, I've been wanting to write my first post about my CD's collection, but I need to get something off my chest, and maybe get some advice.


In 18 days, I'll be taking my university exam. I'm anxious about the thought of not getting selected. Since it's a public university, you take the exam, and your results determine if you're selected. Since I'm getting into Psychology, which is a high-demand career, I have to work hard to get my spot.


Normally, you don't need a good GPA, just a 6, but the better the GPA, the more likely you are to get in (only in tiebreakers). When I entered high school, I didn't worry about it. My mother insisted, but I didn't care. Now, it feels like a tightness in my chest.


I'm afraid I won't get in. I don't have the money for a private university. My mom threatened to force me to enroll in another degree if I don't pass the exam and force me to work (I'd already planned the job because I want to be independent, but I don't want to study that program). She seems reluctant to let me study Psychology just because I told her before that I wanted another career, which I only considered for the money and not the passion.


All my friends are ready for the exam and I feel scared, if I don't get in I don't know what I'll do with my life, I'm scared of the idea of ​​what might happen if I get the email telling me not to get into the career, they didn't even give me the opportunity to choose a second option in my exam registration process, which means that I won't even have a chance at a relocation. I know that if I don't get in this big call there is a minimal chance of applying for the small call, at best, or, failing that, I would have to prepare for next year while studying a career that my mom is excited about because of the money and to me seems distant, unrequited.


I don't feel capable of passing the exam, even though my friends and my boyfriend tell me that if I pass it I can't, he already passed his; but he's smart, I'm not. I have dyslexia and learning disabilities. Basic math is difficult for me without a calculator, and my exam prohibits the use of calculators, including the basic one. I don't even know what I'll get; the guide only lists all the topics, but there are 10 exams randomly distributed in more than 70 classrooms. It could be probability, trigonometry, algebra, or volume; the same goes for the Spanish language or writing sections, where it could be anything from accentuation to subject and direct object. My point is, I don't know what my exam will be about, and I don't feel prepared.


I wish my mother would tell me, believe me, what I'm going to pass.


If anyone reading this has already applied to university (if you're from Mexico, your answer is even more valuable to me, but it doesn't matter where you're from; if you've already applied, regardless of the result, please respond), please respond: How did you do on the exam? Did you get in? Do you have any advice for me? Thanks for reading and compression, I write this with Google Translate help
