Those Annoying Exam Hall Twats

    Right the people in the exam hall that just make a bit too much noise during the exams, any of you have these in your exam halls?

    In mine I hate to say it but it's probably me! I was squeezing a chewing gum out of the packet today and it flew across the room, and then I started laughing to myself. I'm sure it pissed everyone off!

    And during the Geo exam a guy beside me had a calculator that made a beep noise with every touch, arghhh!

    :D

    Ha!!

    I was drinking out of a bottle, and made the loudest sound possible (between the cracking of the bottle and the farting noise my lips made when the air rushed into the bottle). I'd say that annoyed a lot of people in my exam hall!

    My pens and stuff keep falling off the table I'd say the girls are getting a bit pissed off at this stage but other than that there is no one doing anything annoying except the f*cking supervisor OMG she's a lovely woman and all but I am going to scream at her if she doesn't stop pacing up and down in 6 inch heels everyday - its a wooden floor and there's literally a big bang everytime she takes a step, during maths paper 2 the other day she was pacing continuously I thought I was going to crack!!!:mad: I know it's her job to watch us but like maybe she could wear flats next time and avoid us the torture!!

    I think I am going to stab my supervisor with my pen before the LC ends! He has these heavy shoes with rather large heels and he stomps up and down the wooden floor! I was so close to throwing my calculator at him yesterday!

    our examiner/superviser person is addicted to sweets, mainly werthers original and lemon bonbons... with noisey unwrapping!!

    another examiner's phone ringtone went off.

    the girl beside me is always rubbin her legs together and that's annoyin!! and some day i'm gonna snap ,and pull her head off and perhaps then there'll be silence in the hall...

    people are always eating sweets really slownly thinking they're quiet but i can always hear the plastic and i'd prefer if they just ate the damn sweet fast!!!

    people are constantly dropping pens and rubberss which role around the place.

    some one scared the **** out of me when they dropped their (very heavy) watch..

    And lastly WHY OH WHY does everyone rattle their pens and papers JUST as the beep in the listening thing goes off and it starts!!!! UGH it's so annoying!!!!!!!!!!!

    But other than that it's grand....

    Does anyone else just put their heads down and become oblivious to anything else around them for 2 and a half to three hours?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 100 ✭✭alancork


    haha, our supervisors phone went off durin irish paper 2,and it was at the bottom of her bag, she couldnt find it 4 ages..she was saying sorry for a good 5 mins..

    Theres one guy thats always farting,its kinda funny tho, he just sits there smiling 2 himself, as we all look at him in disbelief..haha:D ..

    And, christ, i dunno if anyone else has this problem, but theres a f**king crow outside the window every f**king day, id love 2 shoot him.:eek:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,190 ✭✭✭Haven't a Clue


    Yeah, ya do notice the smallest wee noises in the exam hall. The examiners' whispering's bloody annoying too. Pain in the ass too when the Leaving and Junior Cert timetables differ and they come in numbers halfways through an exam.

    Count yourselves lucky, there are apartments being build about 50 yards down the road from our school, you can hear all the heavy machinery and all the trucks dumping rocks and stuff, its so loud! and we have to have the windows open because of the heat!

    and dont forget the knacker girl school around the corner from us, there always finished about 5 minutes into the exam and they start wailing and screamin outside our school!!!! gah!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 870 ✭✭✭WildCardDoW


    My phone went off today during the listenting, the sap started it early and I didn't realise! Luckily it was during a quiet section and he just smiled and laughed. :eek: [I had an alarm set to make sure i was in there, then forgot to turn it off, os it was my fault, but still! :p]


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 129 ✭✭DtotheK


    ... knacker girl school...

    Exactly. Only time I'd look up is when a pen or something falls off a desk(really small one). Although yesterday, a lads big metal ruler fell. Why do you need a big massive metal ruler? I always look up a lot, but its never cos of noise, I just get on with it.

    The worst have to be the JC people...they actually think their exams are important, so start roaring and shouting when they come out. They'll cop on sometime

    Same, I look around and stuff. Noise doesn't exactly distract me anyway.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 427 ✭✭izzyflusky

    Yep i have to sort of psych myself before the exam, but then im in my own little world, except for the end of biology today when the examiner started eating a biscuit and i could seriously hear every crunch and she knew i could hear and i knew i could hear (we grew closer in that moment) :D i had to shove my fist into my mouth to hide my laughter.

    Ya see it's all about size, he needs a big hard ruler to feel confident for the exams.

    :eek:

    The examiners table is right above a few steps next to my table. And she chews really methodically, it gets veryyy annoying. Smell of her coffee too, bleurghh. A few cawing crows, and during Irish, all the pass people who left early made ****loads of noise when they came back for the listening. Nothing much apart from that.

    im right infront of our examiner too ( "John" :D ) and he whispers away to himself but he makes a whistling noise when he speaks , its hilarious


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,386 ✭✭✭Attol


    I'd say myself. I'm really sick atm and keep coughing and sneezing and sniffling. I keep chugging water and shoving cough sweets in my mouth to try stop it. I thought I was grand on Monday but it came back that morning. Ick...

    Our hall is so noisy, its below our canteen so every 15 mins all you can hear is the whizzing of the fridge and this goes on for like 5 mins......frightened d **** outta me 2day cuz i was day dreaming.

    Our woman examiner paces up and down my row for every exam and i'm seriously gonna cut her legs off cuz as she walks her ankles crack....she's old tho so she won't miss them much........she farted 2day tho i was lik ewww and i looked across 2 one of d girls n i jus burst out laughin, d examiner was soooo embarrassed.

    Then there's the 5th yr outside the door who has her ipod blaring 2day.......i think it was 7 times she played 'chasing cars', like i love the sing but serioiusly is it the only song on it?!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 404 ✭✭kisaragi


    Lol, we're not in a hall, just rooms so there's like 15-20 of us in the room. I also just kinda focus on the exam and nothing else... except during the listening when my friend kept twirling his pen and I wanted to punch him in the face haha.

    It was annoying me when the OLers started leaving Maths Paper 2 like an hour before the end. One by one, they clasped their pens, pencils, and calculators, zipped up their pencil cases, and shuffled out. Head wrecking.

    And then today during Biology the supervisor was annoying the ****e out of me by walking past me every 2 seconds and talking to other people.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 41 pilchard


    i was told that there was not aloud to be any noise outside the exam hall, i.e that the examiner can get someone, one of the attendents, to get them to shut up.. according to one of our teachers the examiner can call the guards to get them to go away/be quiet, if they are distracting exams.......... he could have been exagerating though!:)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 25 Dean-16


    haha a gir l right behind me is constantly eatin chewits...noisy wrappers!!!
    i always drop my pen....haha


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 57 ✭✭whatshername!!


    our examiner told us at the start on wednesday that she wont allow us to eat during the exam because the sound of the wrappers will annoy people but still in every exam she sits there eating chocolate bars and sweets and making as much noise as possible with the wrappers.

    Also today during the biology exam peoples stomachs kept rumbling as the whole room smelt of chocolate. at one stage someones made a really loud noise and the whole room including the examiner burst out laughing.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,179 ✭✭✭FunkZ


    Our superviser left the exam hall for two minutes today so there was a replacement guy, as soon as he came in his mobile rang with that very ****ing annoying Nokia tone, jaysus...

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 256 ✭✭Turnip2000


    I must have it good aswell...my examiner's great...he lets us talk about the formulea and stuff with our answer books open while we sit der before we get the papers.

    And he tells us to enjoy our weekend when we leave early. Im gona miss him when this is all over!!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 42 Tula


    i'm one of those noisy leaving early types. my darn pencil case just won't close quietly :P as for laughing i nearly burst something trying not to laugh when they said 'punc' in the irish listening. girl beside me was exactly the same. oh and our examiner decided it was the best idea to stamp the answer booklets for the next exam. she only stops when she looks up and sees the entire center giving her filthies lol
    :p


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,794 ✭✭✭JC 2K3


    I find it so formal the way everyone refers to it as "The Exam Centre".

    For me it's just a classroom, and I presume for most people it's either just a classroom or a hall.....
