well we were right next to a building site and could hear everything that was happening
halfway through the exam we hear "watch out below" i couldn't help but laugh
still it was really annoying having people hammering sheets of metal right next to the exam room

Beaks, at least its better doing this exam in a room rather than on the stage at school. It was freezing up there during the trials.

Not really. The thesaurus and spell checks are all disabled beforehand.

I hear so many people complain about people typing faster than they do write. I have this to say. For these people, they don't normally realise how fast they actually write when their under pressure. It evens out cause your going at almost the same pace, give or take a few words per second.

moo: sounds like quality. You should have shot the captains.

we did ours in the school hall and it was pretty good, they totally shut off the hall and any microphones/pa systems they may want to use and cordon off the hall so little shits cant get too close..but we had a bird flying around that we couldnt get out before the doors closed, so we had to put up with it for the entire exam and it was really noisy.

I was sitting up the back and the exam supervisors kept on walking around the room! It was so annoying and they were wearing high heels so it was like TAP TAP TAP all the time!! Then they stood behind me and I think they were reading what I was writing.... ahhhhh.

All they do at my school is put up shit paper signs saying "Shhh! Exams in progress", but do you think the rest of the school takes notice? Noooo, so when recess comes the rest of the school are goddamn noisy!

Oh and behind the building we have our exams in is the primary school playground and those little shits like throwing stuff against the doors.

we've got one but its chat. It's the poorest room ever. The only thing worth doing was watching the cricket, doing some wrestling or play mortal kombat 3 on my mega drive. That was quality!!! :D
