Thank you for understanding what I meant
That was exactly my problem in school. It wasn't that I didn't know the stuff, but when I was told that I only had 30 minutes to do 40 problems (which is less than a minute a problem), I would freak out. Mentally, I would realize that I had less than a minute to get each problem done.
