This guy right in front of me, he kept looking where everyone else was up to, & he was always touching his hair!!!!


Maybe the supervisors thought I was most annoying :D
Cause everytime one of them stood in front of my row, I would just stare at them, until they looked away or went to stand somewhere else!!!

Some random outside the exam room was screaming at the top of his lungs.
:rolleyes:

We have gotten used to that at my school, cause outside the hall is the best place to hang-out & smoke, also in the english exam some people left early & were calling their friend to leave also!!

The supervisors annoy me the most, because I sit at the front and they have decided the front of the room is a great place to gossip throughout the exam

i was one page into my area of study essay for english paper 1 and tried to turn the page. it turns out that all eight pages of the writing booklet were connected up the top in groups of two. i told a supervisor and they walked (slowly) all the way to the front of the exam hall (from the back), talked to another supervisor (slowly), waiting (slowly), walked back (slowly), then proceeded to cut up my exam booklet (slowly)

five minutes later i could write again, wasn't so bad though, i ended up spending five minutes less on my essay than planned

i hate the people who are stuck on a question or finished their exam so they just decide to stare at other people... very distracting.. and pen clickers! AND theres this guy in our exam who just insists on leaving for a toilet break every exam and he has shoes with a slight heel and hes rather big so whenever he walks it goes clomp clomp clomp clomp... ARRGh I know i should be concentrating on the exam rather than others annoying habits, but meh...

i havent had many noises from other people yet, though one of my friends was clicking his pens off and on heaps during the AOS, that was a little annoying. the main annoyance today was the rain, it was raining on and off all the way through the exam and our hall has a big fat tin roof... ugh :(

There is not one clicky pen in our exam centre... Well, there might be, but no-one clicks clicky pens...

There hasn't been anything really annoying since the music exam... Behind me was the guy I like (he likes me too... well... yeah [this is beside the point]) and during reading time he was clicking his tongue... during the exam he was opening his drink bottle every second minute... and tapping the desk with his fingers and yeah... I couldn't fully turn around, and he knew that it was annoying me... So I would turn partly around (pretending to stretch) give him a death glare, and he would stop.... for thirty seconds, then start again... There is only so many times you can pretend to stretch in a music exam question before the markers start looking oddly at you and each other...

But no... nothing has really annoyed me... I must be concentrating too hard not to notice anything... Usually I notice everything: every squeak, every person mouthing what they are writing, every pen click, every supervisor walking past, every clock tick... EVERYTHING!

Yeah, I'll agree with that one! Whispering is so annoying. Oh and my seat in the english exams was right next to the girls bathroom. The door makes the biggest banging noise everytime someone goes in and out, and i sware half the female population in the english exams used the bathroom at least once each...

The supervisors!

In the 2nd English exam the head supervisor decided he didn't want to say the last half of the regulations on the microphone (despite the fact the gym was full with about 200 of us) so he put it back in its stand without turning it off.

For the whole exam, everytime a supervisor or student (who goes to the bathroom during an exam? go before!) walked near the mic their footsteps reverberated through the speakers. I don't think anyone else noticed or cared that much, but I am a tech guy (lighting, sound etc) so I am like subconsciously trained to focus my attention on noises like that - it was soooo annoying. And because the supervisors are all old and deaf they didn't hear it so never decided it would be a good idea to turn it off.

I can't stand how the supervisors don't seem to realise that yes, you do actually need EVERY MINUTE of your exam time. In AOS they read out the instructions too late so that they cut into our reading time, but then they didn't extend the reading time. When our already-cut-short reading time was up, they remembered that they'd forgotten to read some of the regulations, so DURING WRITING TIME they proceeded to do so in that slow, clear, big pauses supervisor style speak. Grrrr.
