If you test the auto-belay till you become comfortable with it, you might climb a lot further because the only thing inhibiting you is you fear of heights, not your ability to climb. While you test it, people may think that you are a bad climber, but once you get comfortable, you would be able to climb further than anyone else! Your friends will be quite impressed. The teacher will also give a good grade, not only for trying, but also for doing a great job of climbing. This makes your physical wellness better, as climbing is a good way of exercising your body.
