That's my situation. I have two on Thursday which is my last day. What should a person do with two hours until their next exam? Head to the pub maybe?

Pfft, consider yourself blessed...I have THREE hours between my second last exam and my last one.

9:30am Logic exam (how anybody is supposed to be logical at that ungodly hour really is beyond me, but anyway...) until 11:30 and then a three hour gap until History.

Pub sounds tempting...but somehow I don't think my essays on Post-War France would be quite as coherent if I knocked back a few before writing them...

Although it could be an interesting experiment..

I don't think "sun" and "RDS" can be used in the same sentence.

Hmm, it seemed to me that the sun would ALWAYS be out between the hours of 2:30 and 5:30..then as soon as you stepped outside, the heavens opened.

Someone up there has it in for us poor stressed exam-ees.

tribulus · 10-05-2005 12:07am

Yeah I know what you mean. Still, I'd say it's horrible in August. All that sunshine and you're left inside doing an exam.

More to the point, WHERE would such a thingy be held?

ah indeed where??in college???town??? chances of it materialising are slim i reckon, too many people finished on too many different dates

My mate isn't too impressed that I've turned down the chance to go drinking tonight. He's doing exams in DIT right now. Ah well, that's what I get for being an idiot. I'll be sure to bring the books I borrowed the last day back to UCD tomorrow though!

Yeah, I was around that section. I think I was in B4. Very long day for me today. I've been living off fruit pastilles and strong mints during the exams.

Get some Starburst Joosters. Best exam sweets ever.

You have to eat some sweets during the exams. It seemed to me that alot of people felt awkward about eating during the exam. I'd get a few glances every time I went to eat a few sweets! Then again, I do chew loudly.

rainbow kirby · 13-05-2005 1:25am

It takes away some of the boredom and helps you think imho... I've brought sweets into pretty much every big exam I've ever done.

Sangre · 13-05-2005 9:06am

Finished on 27th...joy. Guess it makes for last year when we actually finished 1st along with pre-med.
Most of my year have an exam yesterday the 12th and the next one the 26th...stinger

panda100 · 13-05-2005 12:50pm

Finish tommorrow-yay!Cant study at all today have that exciting end of exams feeling!All i can think about is what im going to wear out tommorrow nite! Just had lunch in the restaurant and when i was going in you know the tramp(horrible word i know) that hangs around ucd well he was at the bottom of the stairs.Ive always wanted to talk to him just cos it must be really lonely for him all the time jsut walking around.So i had a little extra money today and wanted to buy him a hot dinner and ask him to sit with me cos i was by myself but i chickened out.Instead i brought him an apple juice and some bread and just gave them2 him and ran away.I feel bad know that he must think we look at him as a charity case and not a real person who we would like to talk to

Sangre · 13-05-2005 1:35pm

While a nice gesture I think he prefers to be left alone by the students.

blondie83 · 13-05-2005 3:45pm

I've heard they give him free meals up in the resteraunt - not sure if its true, but I hope it is!

Sangre · 13-05-2005 3:47pm

Yeah he gets free meals. For preventing a rape on campus I'm led to believe. Think one of the papers did a piece on him a while back.

I heard about that. I wasn't sure if it was true or not. It's good that they are doing that for him.
