Hooray For Exams (Or Not)

Hello, hello, hello

Well I'm back everybody and better than ever! Well, to be honest, not really because six exams (that's eighteen hours worth as well as eighteen papers, not to mention a hell of alot of study!) have sadly robbed me of both energy and writing ability. So seeing as exams have been the bane of our lives for the last few weeks I figured that I would share with you an excerpt of some very funny 'exam tips' I found while attempting to find study help on goodtree (they didn't give me a great deal of assistance but they did make me laugh which is just as good when you're stressed):

1) Talk the entire way through the exam. Read questions aloud, debate your answers with yourself out loud. If asked to stop, yell out, "I'm SOOO sure you can hear me thinking." Then start talking about what a jerk the instructor is.

2) Bring some large, cumbersome, ugly idol. Put it right next to you. Pray to it often. Consider a small sacrifice.

4) Bring cheerleaders.

5) On the answer sheet (book, whatever) find a new, interesting way to refuse to answer every question. For example: I refuse to answer this question on the grounds that it conflicts with my religious beliefs. Be creative.

6) Do the exam with crayons, paint, or fluorescent markers.

7) Do the entire exam in another language. If you don't know one, make one up! For math/science exams, try using Roman numerals.

8) Try to get people in the room to do a mexican wave.

9) Complete the exam with everything you write being backwards at a 90 degree angle.

10) As soon as the instructor hands you the exam, eat it.

Good luck for anyone who has any exams left ($20 bucks and bragging rights to anyone who does any of these).

Au Revoir
