history: Having studied for long hours over the weekend, I felt mentally prepared for the test Monday. It was on Anatomy and Physiology. I felt ready for the test today. I had studied more than I thought was possible over the weekend. Nice! Sounds like you will be successful then! I think you will do great!
current: Thanks! I felt like the biggest nerd when I was the first to finish. (awkward.)
next: Hahaha, nerds are cool these days, haven't you heard? Sounds like you are on the road to success!
