    Well during my Junior Cert Geography exam, I had many things on the table - calculator, bottle of water, answer book, map, aerial photograph and question paper, and of course my very-hard steel ruler. I somehow swiped my elbow over the desk, knocking the steel ruler onto the floor, followed closely by my calculator. This created an extremely loud noise, cue about 100 people stopping writing to look at what happened. Everybody was staring at me, and when I went to pick up my ruler off the ground, I couldn't get my short fingernails under it to pry it up (like when you drop a playing card!) so I had to slide my answer book under it and pick it up.

    That was embarrassing :o

    Had to go to to the toilet during Irish Paper 2 the other day, i'm in the furthest row from the door. Tried to wind my way through the desks but everyone had their chair pulled back so far there wasn't an inch between the desks. Walked up and down the row twice before giving up and squeezing my way behind the invigilator who stayed stubbornly in his seat... Had quite an audience by the time I reached the door!

    The last day going into Irish paper 1 my stomach decided to make the most huge grumble/noise ever! Everyone, and I mean everyone looked around. Then for the next half a hour it continued to make noise every now and again.....

    luckily i'm not one to be really badly embarrassed, but it was still pretty cringeworthy!

    Happened to me a few times too:o Did it once in primary school....i'll always remember....accidentally flicked a pen, flew across the room and hit the teacher in the face....needless to say she flipped a lid...got away with it tho:D

    Its something to do with not holding the pen tight enough me thinks....


  • Registered Users Posts: 233 ✭✭KealanOCarroll


    not really a fúck up....or a habit....

    ...but our exam centres are in classrooms (Euro Language College have taken the exam halls this year) and im right beside the window in the back corner. Room is pretty stuffy these days so the windows are all open....anyway the breeze keeps getting in behind the curtain and it sortof balloons out over my desk....completely covering the desk and me....really annoying so I arrived in the last day with a pair of cable ties

    ....got some funny looks off the others while i was standing on my chair ziptie-ing the curtain:P

    This was so embarrassing...

    Had a panic attack during one of my exams because I thought I knew nothing (in an exam I was counting on doing extremely well in), started crying too (but I wasn't upset or sobbing or anything, kinda like what onions irritate your eyes) and everyone kept looking at me, wasted like 15 minutes in the bathroom then trying to calm down! :(

    first exam ..english paper 1..the examiner handed out the answer booklet and then gave out the paper

    me being a smart guy decided to peel the sticky thing of the answer book and then accidently stuck the paper to it ..couldnt get it off and tore the whole ****n thing

    got a new one and then did the same thing at the end handing it up ..but only got the corner thank god!..could've been a disaster

    In french today and this guy was sitting behind me. He is usually the awkward/quiet type so he's usually very nervous and shy.

    So everyone is writing away when all of a sudden you hear a voice from a phone saying "Hello? Hello? Shane? Will I call you back later?" It was obviously his mam, everyone in the room heard it and turned around,while he was rumaging in his pocket to try and turn his phone off his face was bright red..even the examiner smiled :pac:

    And when I was doing maths my stomach let out this huge rumble which the whole room heard! I wasn't the only one though, plenty of other people were rumbling..even the examiner which was quite funnny.

    For my art exam last year, I chose to draw a still life. Material wise, I decided on using a mix of water colours, and pastels. It was going fairly well, until I had to reach for the white paint. Now at the start of the exam, I used a palette which belonged to the school and threw a lot of paint like, everywhere on it. I also used one or two school paints, one being white... or so I thought. Turns out that the 'white paint' I started using was PVA glue! I got quite a shock when I attempted to use pastels on it like half an hour later. And it just wouldn't dry! Bloody disaster.

    During my junior cert I was on flu medication. There was a different pill for different times of the day, and a sleeping pill for night time.

    My Geography exam rolls around, and it's time to take a tablet. I was pretty loopy at the time, so genius here manages to take the sleeping pill by accident.


    ... I did not do well.

    I can't usually eat a lot before exams with the nerves but when I settle in I'm starving. Cue my stomach roaring all over the exam hall.
    So my habit is shuffling my papers, scooting my chair and punching my clearing my throat to hide it.
    Awful. I've learned to shove a sandwhich down my throat before-hand though.


  • Registered Users Posts: 182 ✭✭Mwah

    Same, but I find the good old-fashioned REALLY LOUD COUGH does it. Or my maths set pencil case...give it a clatter and ya get away with it.
