I thought it was really easy. Although in one of the parts where you had to identify part-writing errors, they had parallel octaves, and that wasn't one of the choices. xD I guess I'm just better with analysis and part writing (I finished the part writing in like 10 or 15 minutes, lol).

I was expecting an easy 5, but my expectations have dropped a lot because of not finishing the multiple choice and that hard sight singing. I'm still fairly certain that I'll get a 4, though.

The melodic dictation was just a bitch for me. ): Also, for the sight-singing, everyone else had time to warm up beforehand, since I was the one who had to do it first, before lunch, aka before everyone had time to warm up with a piano. >.>

I'm normally good at melodic dictation, but the second one...that singing was too high for me to identify anything. Harmonic dictation, I'll admit, the only thing I ran out of time to do was fill some of the chords. xD

Really, though, I just don't think I did that well. ): Oh well, I'll be taking many theory courses soon enough, hah, and it's not like I completely bombed. I skipped what I felt like I had to skip and didn't finish some of the melodic dictation/the chords of the harmonic dictation, but I feel rather confident about everything else besides sight-singing. A 3, probably, knowing my luck. xD
