Exams

Really sucks this semester, I have 5 exams in a row, back to back. 19-23 May most of which are in the morning.

Has anyone got it worse?

Another exams thread! My exam timetable this semester is actually quite decent, I'm happy enough with them.

Do you people really think anyone gives a shit about your exam timetables?

My one exam is on a consecutive day. So unfair.

There were four years between my last two exams. I hate everyone.

My last exam's on Thursday :(

I've not even started to revise...

[hr]

So someone asked me "What is it you do?". I thought about it for a minute. Then I thought about it a little more. All the while I probably looked like I was staring in to space, struggling for an answer. And I was. There was only one response I could really give.

"I make sure the shit stays off the fan."

I think physicists must be masochists. Every one I know gets horrible exam timetables every single year. I'm glad I stopped being one.

For all those unhappy, the guy in charge of exams for Maths said the departments can't do a thing unless the students start making complaints. Apparently the entire thing is produced by an algorithm that maths aren't very happy with.

A few of us in psych did complain and our director of teaching said that there was nothing he could do about the timetable except make sure we don't get two on the same day :-P

10? Do you have 2 papers per exam, perchance?

I'm a postgrad; I did my first degree elsewhere and at the end of my 3rd year I had 10 exams: one per day Monday to Friday of the first week, one per day Tuesday to Saturday of the second week.

No they're all separate, serves me right for doing triple subject. They're all oral/aural/written plus an extra one. First was today. NOT good. :(
