      I remember one time, in an history exam, there was only like.... 10 questions
      multiple-choice questions. Easy.
      But the last one was an essay question XD
      Some people were losing their mind but that was actually easy for me.
      I have no memory (at all), but if you have to explain the logic of something,
      I am your man.

    Random funny story about theory: I was taking my RCM Advanced Harmony exam a few years back. There are 4 questions, where question 1 is writing counterpoint, question 2 and 3 are SATB chorale/harmonization/harmonic analysis style, and question 4 is where they give you an opening of 2 bars and then force you to write a 12 bar piece following the opening, with certain restrictions on modulations and cadences. It's supposed to take 3 hours, which seems long, until you start writing it. Anyways, at some point I was getting pretty worried about time, and then I noticed something: one option (there are multiple options for the questions) for question 2 used the same excerpt as another option for question 3. I immediately proceeded to transpose my answer for question 2 onto question 3, and gained back a lot of time for myself. In all my 17 years of living, that was probably the biggest-brain move I've ever made on a test/exam.

    As a child, I took two years of piano. Then at the end of elementary, I started violin classes early over the summer. I proceeded directly into intermediate classes instead of beginner... and that's how, for 8 years I played violin while knowing almost no musical theory! I realize I "knew" the scales, length of notes and rests, etc, but if you told me to play a scale by name for instance, I couldn't match that to the ones I knew by ear! I have perfect pitch, so I am sure that helped, but looking back, I'm amazed I played through 8 years of this, ranging from 1st - 3rd chair in the 1st violins. I did well in varsity, chamber, solo & ensemble competitions, even sight reading and never had problems... but I always wanted to learn to read music better. I stopped playing in college, but TwoSet made me recently start playing again. After this video, they inspired me to look at beginner music theory info online and in the first exercise I already learned things I didn't know. Doh!!! I should've done this a long time ago. Thanks, TwoSet! :D

    Hey guys, don't feel bad. I enjoyed watching you take the test even though most of the time I had no idea what you were talking about (I don't read music). My daughter told me about you (she plays piano very well and even writes music). Thanks and keep up the good work! God bless you both!
