This has nothing to do with anything, but I thought this community would appreciate this story as much as any. :) I had a dream last night that I had to enter into this long hallway to get my L1 results, sit down in a large room, and then look up at a large sign that posted my results. The sign said I got a Band 9. Then I woke up and it took me a minute to realize I had been dreaming.

I actually had a dream the other night that someone gave me my June 2014 Level 2 result, and it read "the minimum passing score was 67%. You scored 66.67% and barely missed. Sorry." But I woke up when I had that realization that I was dreaming, because they don't disclose the minimum passing score. I'm going to be on edge from now until Tuesday morning. I was right on the bubble with my last practice exam at 66%, but I had four nights to review after that. After the exam I felt like I either barely passed or barely failed.

While we are talking about random dreams...I had a dream once that I was an Excel cell, with a formula entered into it. I could replicate myself and everything by copying and pasting, and create duplicates of myself that had slightly different abilities and powers (as formulae in Excel changes depending on the position of the cells you were pasting into.

  Ahhhh, must be such a relief to know it’s a dream!
  
  Urgh, I know that feeling. Tossed and turned for mine years ago, and fidgeted at work all day while waiting for that email…

  Makes my dreams of being stuck on a golf course with a work colleague that was determined to make me smoke a few dozen cigarettes seem quite normal…

  Gave my L1exam this June. Sine then I feel like I’m missing something which I was experiencing the past 6months.
  
  Anyone else feel the same?

  Well at least your actual results are close. I had a dream about my L3 results a couple of nights ago. It made me realise that no matter which corner of your brain you lock out your exam thoughts (kind of like inception) , it seems to come floating back eventually :p

  Well done @elixir707. I look forward to hopefully sharing the same relief in around 6 months time.
