goodnight everyone, got an exam in not very long at all, wish me lucks i leave you with an open thread to commendeir here be pirates
I love exams It was always my favorite day to go to school. You go in, do your thing and leave. You dont have to hear your teacher talk for 2 hours, participate in whatever they are discussing, you dont have to listen to the stupid questions of the other students, but maybe that's the antisocial side of me speaking.
You are absolutely crazy!~! On non-exam days, I pass notes, wander the classroom, work on intricate doodles, flash flirtatious glances at the girls across from me, humm, make fun of the discussions going on in the classroom, read, and/or plan on ways of escaping the class that is holding me from freedom. Exams mean strict orderly silence combined with unneeded anxiety, massive panic from lack of study and a mentally draining experience in subjects that I am largely uninterested in. Different strokes for different folks.
Im with authentique on the part that exams are stricly buisness and anti social... But i always finish in half the time and forced to wait in complete boredom for sometimes hours. Plus they over exadurate the "no cheating" rule. With just a teacher in the room no one will cheat, nevermind all the other rules that make it so excruciating.
depends on the teacher... in 8th grade my english teacher was way too old to teach... when he gave 2 page tests i would do one page and my friend would do the other, then i would actually walk over to his desk and trade finished pages so we could copy each other's work... i notice the test-haters are all still in high school... in college you don't know your classmates so hanging out in class isn't as fun, plus you actually get to leave when you are done... i also loved tests because i'm ridiculously good at them, so i never had to worry about being prepared or anything...
Sleep with the text under your pillow. Old fashioned way of memorizing the info. haha. good luck sleep tight
I used to enjoy exams as well. I'd never study for them, and I'd usually finish within two hours. when we were done with our exam, we were done for the day. me and a classmate once raced to finish an english exam - I won, 30 minutes. good luck with your exam. I'm sure you'll do fine.
