    Wow, it sounds like you guys have pretty strict examiners. We have such a sound one. She gives us out our papers once everyone's in and let's us start early if we're all in and then she just sits at the top until someone wants her for something and then 5 mins before its time to leave she'll just say like "ok 5 mins left" and if you're not done at the end she gives you extra time but tells you you have to leave like every 2mins but some people got like an extra 10!

    And she doesn't care about the rule thing that you have to stay for the 1st 30mins or that you cant leave in last 10mins either.

    The last ten minutes thing isn't crucial but the 30 minutes is sacrosanct.
    Let's hope no-one from the SEC visits the school and finds one of her candidates out early.

    For all those wondering about how it went here what I know..... I handed the paper to my principals secretary and she gave it to him and he spoke with the Super-intendant. Other then that I know nothing :( Hoping for the best :)

    I hope the superintendent went home and rolled up a bluntt using the paper from your short questions and then he passed iit on to your principal and they smoked it down to a piece of ash and then took photos so that they can put them up on bebo later.

    Do you seriously think thats an appropriate thing to say? The guy was obviously upset over the entire incident


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 228 ✭✭conormurphy


    Ah I know,it would upset anyone, but I mean if the guy is smart enough to get an A in History, he's smart enough not to catch feelings over the internet, but can ya imagine the superintnedent doin that?

    At the end of the exam I was rushing and was writing a little bit after my super-intendant said pens down..... So he came over to me and said 'Hurry up and seal that.' So I did picked up my pictures and left. I just got home and found the short answer sheets inside my pictures. :(

    Is there anything I can do like the super-intendant didn't remind us or anything........ All help would be appreciated, I just don't know what do do like I filled the booklet but the most I can get is 72.5%

    you shud have kept mouth shut cause if they lose any part of your exam its straight a up frot.... oh well....

    Looking at the heading for this forum for a while but never said anything cos it was to do with history but i decided to give a look in today and i see it has nothing to do with history really and is just a mistake anyone couldve made.
    Its a shame it happened and if the examiners failed to take it back by now, the best thing to do is notify principal and class teacher.
    Then take t home and keep it somewhere until the results come out and make your add the markd you've totted up to be right onto your history exam ans that will give you the proper result.

    Aw man, that's less than satisfyin...

    Don't worry, it's just the JC. At least you have an excuse if you don't do well.

    If you are that stupid to forget to give up your short questions you deserve to fail.

    That was uncalled for. Everyone makes mistakes, thats why we have rubbers on pencils

    What crap? In my opinion if she was that stupid to forget the questions then she deserves to fail.

    They might even contact you about it or get you to repeat a different set of sort questions in september. Examiners can be very leniant about these things and they can tell by how you done in your written part, how good you are at the subject, and judging by the way you said its your best subject or somethin along them lines it should turn out that they will figure that out.
    They will then know if it was a mistake or purposely done and will deduct you very few marks for doing so.
    All in all you have less to worry about than you think. :)
