this is apart from the usual giving up of life, liberty and freedom...
1. That we are not allowed to carry the statute books and have to instead memorise the long list of definitions.
2. That the neighbour is not only a cheater but an irritating one at that. He keeps calling the person in front of me for help...Rajiv Rajiv Rajiv Rajiv.. for heavens sake, shut up.
3.That supervisors wear duppattas with shells.
4. That the choice of last answer depends not on what i know best but on what i can answer fastest given the limited time i have left.
5. That the neighbour adjusts his/her pen in a squeaky manner or tries to kill the answer sheet with pen and sheet groans in response.
6. That the supervisors decide to spend the boring three hours by talking to each other in not so hush voices.
7. That some person(s) near me would have taken 3 extra sheets while i am still on the original sheet.
8. That all the nice movies come on TV day before when i am busy studying and nothing on TV the day i give the paper and have free time.
9. That I have to travel in the hot summer sun at 1 pm and struggle to find a parking.
10. That I get bored in the middle of the exam. (but to counter this, i start singing in my head or recalling news that i saw or book i had read while still writing the answers.. correct answers.)

No.5 Howlarious!
N0.10 happened often enough :(
ok from the other side, things i cant understand abt students giving exams
- how some of them manage to write with those million bangles on their hands, advertising that they couldnt wait till exams are over to get married
- how they can forget to get enough pens
- why they have to borrow ruler, eraser etc from their friends
- what they can possibly find out in the 45 seconds that the supervisor is on the door step looking for someone to get something another student wants
- how they can continue to make mistakes in filling up columns despite writing exams all these years
- how they could possibly want an extra sheet when the main answer book has 40 pages
and keep thinking, omg i hope i dont get any papers to check this time.
well.. i cant understand the bangles either...
and i dont need any ruler/pencil for this paper. Just pen.. though i remember once even i forgot a pen to the exam.. borrowed from a friend before the exam though.
and in that 45 sec - one can get the section no., topic, yes/no.
And some students write 2-3 words in each line.. so u get the picture.
Only one thing I can't understand..
what is the point of an examination?
thats elementary minerva. its human to want to torture, oneself and others
what i hate is other ppl's ordeal getting over before mine does x-(
@Rama.. Its quite irritating, isnt it.. fortunately for me.. i finished before you did.. or my friends.. ha!!
@Janaki - for the first time, i sympathised with the teachers.. no not because of your list from the other side but because i am wondering how they manage to correct papers with the kind of handwriting i end up with by the end of exam and i am better of the lot.
