...

Word of advice - Do not look back on what's done and over. Discussing about right and wrong answers given serves no purpose at THIS point of time. It's simply saps your energy, waste precious time, shakes your confidence and disrupts your mental focus on what's left to be accomplished.

...

Well said... but I can understand the mentality of students wanting to know how they fared as soon as possible, while it is still fresh in their minds. I'm like that too. It would nag and eat me until I have a burning need to check with my friends how they solved those problems.

It works both ways. If they get the same answer as you, it's a massive relief and morale boosting. If they don't and you find that you were wrong, then it is crushing and very depressing. Either way, it can either positively or negatively impact your preparation for the remaining papers.

One way to look at it is that we cannot control our past, but we do have quite a bit of control over our future. If we feel we didn't do well in our past papers, well, there's really nothing we can do about it now. So we had better concentrate, work harder, and prepare more comprehensively to do better in our upcoming papers to make up for the shortfall.

Gambatte, all P6ers! Rev your engines and look forward to conquer the remaining papers!

\" Don't tell me where you have hidden my present, \" Ruby told her brother.

Ruby told her brother that he was not ___________

Ruby told her brother that he was not allowed to tell him where he had hidden his present.

Is this accepted??

No, it's unacceptable. If you add 'allowed ' , you are actually changing the meaning of the sentence as the original sentence has no 'allowed '.

I don't think that I'm changing the meaning of the sentence. Can someone explain to me? Another query, what about the word' supposed'? :?:[/quote]
Well,don't refers to do not,so allowed may not be changing the meaning,but you are adding an unnecessary word when you can just say ' he was not to.....
