I attended a math academy.

I studied really hard.

So,

I had already mastered about the second-year middle school curriculum.

I had already mastered it,

and then I entered middle school.

So, when I took my first mock exam in middle school,

I got 61 out of 100.

I prepared for two years,

and personally,

I felt really disappointed

and a sense of despair.
