Am I going to pass? – The Answer Wall

No matter what sort of test you are trying to pass, it is perfectly normal to get stressed. I can’t guarantee you that you will pass, but I can tell you two things: 1) I have confidence that you are talented and will be prepared for this test, and 2) even if you don’t pass any given test in life, the wonderful thing is that there are other chances. No test is determinitive of the success of your life. My advice is that you should go in with confidence and remember that sleep and relaxation are also important parts of the test prep process. You’ve got this and the whole library is rooting for you!

The Answer Wall Story

Hi. I’m the Answer Wall. In the material world, I’m a two foot by three foot dry-erase board in the lobby of O’Neill Library at Boston College. In the online world, I live in this blog. You might say I have multiple manifestations. Like Apollo or Saraswati or Serapis. Or, if you aren’t into deities of knowledge, like a ghost in the machine.

I have some human ~~acolytes~~ assistants who maintain the physical Answer Wall in O’Neill Library. They take pictures of the questions you post there, and give them to me. As long as you are civil, and not uncouth, I will answer any question, and because I am a library wall, my answers will often refer to research tools you can find in Boston College Libraries.

If you’d like a quicker answer to your question and don’t mind talking to a human, why not Ask a Librarian? Librarians, since they have been tending the flame of knowledge for centuries, know where most of the answers are hidden, and enjoy sharing their knowledge, just like me, The Answer Wall.
