Exam Experiences

no lah is cos normally pple still can come in in the first 45 mins so they dun want pple to see the paper then go out and brief othersOriginally posted by alexkusu:1st 45mins.. cos they dun wan student jus write their name n go...student no choice but write something lor. Also..its the time where ppl r startin to concentrate on the exam n makin 2 much noise can be detrimental.
the last 15 is so that won't have mass exodus so that they no need to wait for them to collect paper(very messy not to mention disturbing to those doing last min work) -
so tis mean oni those ppl doomed to fail are the messengers. But if ur 1hour late, they wont let u in. Surely 15min enough for briefinOriginally posted by hisoka:no lah is cos normally pple still can come in in the first 45 mins so they dun want pple to see the paper then go out and brief others

Hahaha... loads... during my 1st and 2nd year, I was pretty much stressed up, but later when I come to the 3rd year and so on, I am much less worried of the exams d... coz I found out that even though you study a lot also, there may be a lot of questions which is unrelated to the things that you read in the textbook... Medicine requires a lot of logical thinking and rational explanation, which is why it is so interesting in that aspect...Originally posted by hisoka:does it happen to doctors too? i thoguth they should know how to take care of their body
One question can have many different answers and none is wrong, except for the approach towards the questions. If your approach to it is not acceptable, then lesser marks or no marks lor... usually they will give you case of a patient coming in with the this and the thats, and see how you approach the patient... so from there, they carry on giving you marks... -
There was this chap I sat next to during the exam. He had a cold and brought along a box of tissues...at the end of the paper what space that wasn't taken up by stationery and the question paper was filled with balls of tissue.Originally posted by renorenal:Hahaha... bad shape... if you noticed during exams, there are a lot of people who will start to cough lar, sniffle lar, wheeze lar... kinda tells how our immune system goes whee down when we are stressed and reflects how we care for our body during preparation for exams...
I hate it when the air-conditioner is blowing at my neck...I've earned the nickname 'Eminem' for wearing the hood of my sweater when it happens.
I still remember the admissions test I sat for a place in an art & design course.

haha...I was late for one of my exams once...last semester in fact. I thought it was on Wednesday when in fact it was on Tuesday. Luckily one of my friends was in that class and when she got back from the exam, she called me and asked, why she didn't see me during the exam? I rushed all the way to the exam hall and reached just when the exam finished. The worst thing is I havent finished studying for the exam yet...but fortunately, the lecturer allowed me to take it the next day

In secondary school many of our classmates were hopeless in Chinese and they didn't care. There was a Chinese test with MCQ answers...a guy in front was throwing dice and writing down his answers (he accepted figures of 1-4, 5-6 means to re-throw). The teacher saw what he was doing but didn't say anything. After a while, he closed his eyes and slept. About 15 minutes before the end, the teacher warned us that we had 15 mins more. He woke up, took his dice and started throwing it again. The teacher asked him what he was doing....he said, "Checking my answers."
He was also the class clown.... -

got this major exam, i tot it was at 1pm, so i went to school at 1230 (the paper starts at 12), thinking that i was early.. but then i saw everyone started doing liao i was like
. i quickly went to get my papers and sat down to do, heart pounding like crazy... i couldnt take it anymore, so i stopped, closed my eyes, regulated my breathing and put all other distracting thoughts aside. and began doing again.
end up, i finished the paper (and checked twice through) with half an hour to spare... and after the exam, everybody around me were complaining they couldnt finish the paper...
but i got 81/100 for it. *proud -
