The last exam..

    Final exam of a PLC at 9:30. Could tell yesterday morning, before that exam, that we're already at the end of the course and looking to party! Even though the mornings exam is actually a big one, we've been in holiday mode since the end of the last. We can smell the freedom, and the beer.

    Is this general last exam behaviour? I failed my final leaving cert exam (a long time ago) because I just couldn't wait to get out!

    No, I could never relax until exams were over. Of course I'd be looking forward to the freedom and the delicious beer but couldn't nor wouldn't jeopardise my hard work by giving up early.

    Hope you can concentrate and get through it!

    No, I wanted to know how other people took their last exam, or fared in their last exam. In fact was talking to someone today who said they'd be very interested in last exam statistics. As would I, and would look it up, except for trying now to keep last exam data in my head, plus laptop and desktop on the blink and can't be arsed with the effort on phone.

    Last exam of a Plc last week for me too. Serious holiday mode.

    Only difference is, I'm delivering the course. I get to have that feeling every year, and then have loads of time off to enjoy it!

    :D

    No we wrote it on scrolls and sent them to the leaders via carrier pigeon.

    This explains pigeons begging on the street now. So many unemployed pigeons.

    We were watching our head of course having an emotional meltdown, and another tutor just feeding off our stress! And a third who just wanted the year to be over since mid September and lets us off with murder.

    I actually reckon I may end up in teaching !

    You don't remember 1998 I take it. The pigeons were heralded up there with the doctor and the man who had a car. It was the worst of times, it was the best of times.

    I think I've gone mental enough to join your club.

    Honestly I love teaching!

    I was in a computer room in college in 1995, and you could go on the ESPN website and get live baseball scores. From America!!

    I thought to myself then, this is the pinnacle, right here.
