    Did some people actually leave the exam early? Nobody in my hall left, and I mean nobody, until the time was up.

    I doubt anyone did with that paper.

    More likely an attendant got a look at the paper, or even a teacher in a school who passed the info on.





    I think it's the first time in 3 years at least, if not 4, that the forum isn't full of people moaning about the poets on P2 :p

    My examiner seems to have no awareness of the time allocated for each exam! :P For both Paper 1 and Paper 2 we've been given 10 minutes extra. I'm not sure if she is doing purposely (being sound ;)) or else just forgets! But I won't complain! :P

    My examiner today gave us 5 minutes extra at the start and 5 minutes extra at the end. But she's like ancient. I mean ancient. So I think she was reading the time from her sun dial or something.

    Our guy started 5 minutes late.

    Also do you have to ask the supervisor to use the toilet. I did today and he took my paper while I was gone and wrote down the time I left and came back, but I've seen other people just leave and comeback and he's still there sitting in his seat.

    Yes they need to write the time incase you had notes in the bathroom to cheat or something..it happens

    My examiner is really .. different than the typical examiner? :P
    Like, we can just go to the bathroom whenever we want, you don't even have to ask her, you just walk out. She doesn't write anything on your exam if you go. The bathroom is right outside the hall where we are doing our exams, but still..! Some people doing English yesterday went 2/3 times.. Kinda crazy!
