State the exam and then harp on about whatever the issue is with it you have.

like me: Exam Accounting Information for Managers 200101 spring

ALtho i aced it, i cant help but get pissed about the extra marks i could have earned. you see, the unit coordinator forgot to stick the last page containing the last 2 MC questions and the MC tick box. We had a total of 20 mc but reduced to 18 mc's. But its not just me - all the exam papers are like that as well.
If anyone else did AIM, what did you think abt it? for me, it was the easiest exam becoz i put more time into studying for it.

MY other exams were Managing people at work, Management foundatiosn and management and decision making. i have one last exam left, management and decision making.

anyway, what are your stories? maybe a rowdy student breathing loudly and disturbing the peace, or a cheater who tries to look at your exam by yawning and stretching or a rickety old chair/table....

all my exams were open book ... which i think completely suck cause you can get away with doing nothing all semester.

I was on the verge of putting my leg out in a lecture theatre for issues and change and tripping over a lecturer who i hate.

In nature based the teacher keep looking at me strangely cause someone borrowed a pen from me :confused:

But just for once i would like to have a closed book exam ... sounds strange, doesn't it.

Ah Cape .. I'm jealous, I love open book exams!

Anway my story is that I got a "rejection letter" from the uni today, saying that my misadventure 'excuse' was not accepted and I can't sit the final chem exam.. so yeh I'm fucked. But hopefully my marketing exams will go alot smoother..

exams are about 30 - 40% ... more assignments ... understatement, we usually do about 2 each week.

Each subject its about 2 - 3 assignments, plus weekly reading and reflections, plus sometimes final exam.
