Out of 30 or so people at my school about 10 were left at full time. So you would've been in hysterics, but i thought it was shit. They should've stayed.

We have about 60 students doing bus studies, 10 girls lol

Um yeah.. over half of all the guys had left before the end of the exam, I finished with about 2 mins to spare. Some guy sitting next to me fell asleep, and the guy on the other side of me sat there in the exam and didn't write a thing yet stayed the whole 3 hours.. strange much?

What?! :confused: that's just weird. what is the point of stayin for 3 hours and not doing anything. i reckon that would be a real put off if i sat next to them,
maybe i go to a goodie goodie school. ok actually yes i go to a good girl school. nobody leaves early, everyone stays and writes their assess odd.

Because they're hopeless failures at life who are relying on people like you to drag them up with scaling...

I had about 10 minutes left. That's after checking everything. To me, MC and Short answer don't take much time at all, but the reports take about an hour.

Yeah, me too, except I had about 20 minutes left. I do the MC and short answer in one hour.

BUT, our school doesn't let us leave early. One, probably because at least we can scrape some marks if we stayed. Two, because it's a distraction to others.

And I agree. It's really a huge put-off if you either sit next to someone who writes nothing, or someone who never stops writing. And I ALWAYS sit next to someone like that lol

Actually, that ^ is incorrect.

If the marks your school send to the BOS are say, between 50 and 90, and the marks that your class gets in the exam is between 50 and 90, then the aligned mark WON'T be good. I think it actually might be worse off. BUT, if everyone even does a LITTLE study, and in the exam the marks are between 65 and 95, then everyone's marks get aligned up. Which is why, by not studying, you're not only screwing yourself up, but everyone else too.

EDIT: I'm not saying that YOU screwed up your year, I'm talking about everyone in general who doesn't study. Sorry if it seems like I'm ripping into you. :eek:
