    You can tell by watching people what year they're in. In a 3 hour exam :

    1st years : leave 1:30 - 2 hours into the exam
    2nd years : leave 2 hours to 2:30 into the exam
    3rd years : not there cos they finish in april
    4th years : leave 3:30 into a 3 hour exam smile.gif

    Today's exam was a blast though. They left the air-conditioning on just long enough for everybody to get headaches, and turned it off in plenty of time for us to be sweating like pigs half-way through the exam. rolleyes.gif

    And why is there always someone who had beans for breakfast? I smelled something funky and thought to myself : "Smells like **** in here" and had a little Freudian slip writing "in oder" instead of "in order" biggrin.gif

    It was also kind of distracting today because instead of the usual old balding fat **** men waddling sweatily up and down the ailes, there was a bunch of nice looking women about our own age smile.gif You know you're almost finished college when the lecturers are about your age smile.gif There was one woman in particular where I felt like grabbing her ass every time she walked past redface.gif

    I just hope I didn't have another Fredian slip and write : "so ass to"! biggrin.gif

    Hmm in first year i left on the hour every exam.
    In second year the same.
    In third year the same bar two ones where i stayed in for two hours.
    In fourth year i walked out early for them all.

    And at the end of it? Hopefully a pass... smile.gif

    Lucky for some, last two 3 hour exams I had to spend 3 hours in! Got out of one in an hour and a half, so some of your research seems correct biggrin.gif

    As for exam time... I'm not sure how anyone could possibly like it.

    I was thinking... we study for our junior cert out of fear, study for the leaving cos we have to and study in college cos we want to.......


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 27,644 ✭✭✭✭nesf


    Nah, we study in college as a means of continuing a life of no responsibilities, dangerously large quantities of alcohol and of course free internet access smile.gif

    Oh and in order to recieve a good degree aswell.....

    We had 3 birds in our exam hall today for a whole 3 hour exam, got in through the emergency exits which were left open because of the heat, started ****ting all over the place and the people sitting exams smile.gif

    Yeah, nothing like a HOT invigliator to cheer you up when an exam is going down the tubes.

    4th year is optional in mo scoile wink.gif

    Fear can sometimes be a useful emotion. For instance, let's say you're an astronaught on the moon and you fear that your partner has been turned into Dracula. The next time he goes out for the moon pieces, wham! You just slam the door behind him and blast off. He might call you on the radio and say he's not Dracula, but you just say, "Think again, bat man."

    It's very easy when you're getting paid a small fortune to invigilate and correct the exams. tongue.gif


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,379 ✭✭✭Mills


    LOL, sorry I didn't realise what my post sounded like when I was typing it but reading over it I think I should clarify that these were actual birds, with wings, that flew in the doors and flew round for the whole exam smile.gif
