Bullied (screamed at) in front of the whole year group before an exam. How would you handle it?

[Anonymous]

Minutes before everyone had to go into the exam room, all the students of the year were in the canteen. Everyone is huddled against each other with their bags and jackets on the tables/floor. Some people even sitting on the floor. I was initially sitting on a table, moved to speak to someone else.
It came to the time where I had to get my stuff from the table and sit where I moved.

I walk to the other table, struggling to reach for my bag and jacket. There was a girl who was directly in between my path. I say ‘sorry’. as I very tightly squashed pass her twice, the first time to move my jacket, and the second to move my bag. After the second time she screams “NEXT TIME CAN YOU SAY EXCUSE ME PLEASE”

I was so surprised and humiliated that someone would scream to the top of their lungs like that before an exam in front of the entire school year. I obviously did not mean to squash her, but that’s just what the situation was.

Opinions?

No she ran her mouth, she was asking for an ass whipping.

Remaining calm in such situations is key. I remember a time in college when a peer acted similarly harshly before a presentation. Instead of letting it affect me, I took deep breaths to regain focus. Consider why the other person might react that way and, when possible, have a calm discussion later to clarify any misunderstandings. Remember, it's valuable to stay centered on your goals and the exam rather than on sudden outbursts. Your composure can speak volumes about your maturity and resilience.
