    I knew I would get a response like that. What difference does it make if a person leaves with an hour left or 30 or 40 minutes to than 10, 20 minutes..seriously like??

    I was writing up to the very last minute in every exam I did this year, and in one in particular, I wanted to punch a final year Physics student sitting next to me for talking to himself. The amount of pressure you're under in the last 5 mins can get pretty intense when you don't have a question finished. Letting people out then is unfair on the people trying to focus.

    So they come up with a cut off point on when you can leave. I think it's very fair.

    Heh, when was this? I'm fairly sure I don't talk to myself during exams but I'm paranoid now that it may have been me!

    Chubby? Yup, definitely sounds like me. :(

    If it was, I apologise.

    Why would you be talking to yourself?

    Well I don't intentionally talk to myself or anything.....who am I to say what exam stress inadvertently does to me?

    Also that exam in the Metropole was the first exam this year that went really well, so I was probably a bit giddy.
