    Anyone for a v-techer on the exams unit? Lock the doors behind us, clean everyone out. It'd be great. A group of us could clean up in there!

    "You made me want to do it"

    If only.

    Although, we could actually do it, but with water pistols, as a demonstration.

    I really can't believe that two irish exams are still missing this close to the start.

    There are still lots of clashes with art history because as my lecturer said today they released the timetables to the students without letting the departments see and point out clashes.
    Why release a confirmed and final timetable that will have to be changed?

    Incompetence really annoys me.

    For a sec there I thought you were talking about those v-tech computer things for kids... I was seriously wondering how that would work.

    Was at a staff student meeting today with med staff - lecturers are up in arms about it and supporting students 100%.

    Can't believe the state of things even now.

    I hope this goes public, I bet they'd do a better job of the timetable if there was some bad press.

    I wonder is it actually physically possible, given the shorter exam season, the increase in the number of exams with modular repeats, and the limited number of exams that can happen per day....is it actually possible to have a timetable that is clash free, given the situation? Why is it so much worse this year compared to previous years?

    So does anyone know what you're meant to do if you still have exams clashing? I know they had a notice up saying not to do anything, that they'd contact you, but thats gone now and I really dont trust them anyway...
    Where exactly is the exams unit?? :confused:

    The door was open all semester. All you had to do was call around and make your complaint!

    the students are revolting!! and its about bloody time!!

    Im serious, get on the Commerce student band wagon!! they were protesting today, and have a meeting at half 8 tomorrow to try sort out that Strategy mess.

    There were people crying in my sociology lecture today because 2 soc exams are clashing. this is beyond ridiculous. Im lucky, my timetable couldnt be nicer but when your classmates are in tears around you...

    goldberry you've got to go to the exam office and fill out a clash form. (yes they have clash forms:rolleyes: )

    Someone i know is 'sitting' two exams at once.
    They'll do one with the class then have a supervised break and be taken to a room on their own to do it.
    Which is a bit mad.

    I'd say they're keeping it secret so there's not a riot outside the room!
