I'd ****ing hate that. Unlucky.

I'd say they done it to ease stress or something, I know I'd rather to have them all done before xmas instead of not enjoying it.

I hope stress isn't their reason,if so its a terrible one,how anyone can have a stress free christmas with exams after is beyond me?

(although I won't be stressing,I refuse to look at a book till january)

According to the SU, the LC results came out late this year which pushed everything back a week, so the registrar decided this was the only way things would work. It's a trial this year, thinks it'll reduce stress and make things easier so it might be implemented for further years

the exams are fairly late in December and fairly early in January, my last exams is Dec. 22nd, and trying to work leading up to that now will be a bitch, esp when were expected to work in the industry during the college year!

I guess we don't get a study week 'cause I have tutorials on week of the 13th December. Oh Bummer!

It depends entirely on your course and whether you have finish the set curriculum in time.

Personally, I think it is a good idea. Not sure what year other posters are in or what level their exams are in terms of difficulty but these are my finals and if I slip up on one exam my honours degree is immediately capped to a pass degree even if I passed the repeat and had an average of 99.9%. Not to mention that they are incredibly hard and have the same difficulty level of professional exams (if not harder) that have failure rates of 70%.

Last year the people doing my course had 6 exams, 6 days in a row -Monday to Saturday.

I think this will answer your question as to why some are before and some are after christmas.
