Strange/Funny happenings in exams?

I'm just about to start my GCSE exams, in about 2 weeks I'm sitting my first one.

I just thought has anyone ever had any 'out of the ordinary' things happen in exams while they have been there?

LOL

sounds quite wierd to me

In one of our science exams (called Individual Skills Assessments) one of the lads opened the paper too early, got quite confused, and got thrown out of the exam

Actually, now I remember, it was the last exam of the mock exam week, and we were all tired, and just wanted to leave (as we were off timetable)

One of the lads in the exam, bit of a rebel, doesn't talk, and shows up when he wants to, wiht unexplained reasons as to why he was absent. He put his hand up to go to the toilet, instead of going to the toilets through the changing rooms, he went through the opposite door, and legged it...

Take some plastic soldiers in with you or something...

Have like a war on my desk? How funny would that be, or quite disturbing for the people around me, they'd all be thinking...

"What IS he doing?"

I do agree, this thread is making me chuckle...

Helping me through me few remaining days at school...

Oh god, then the exams await

Hmmm, that would probably explain a few things that the invigilators do during the old exams...

Some of these stories are hilarious

Not that much happened in my exams apart from the phone I mentioned earlier

I know, the best is still the plastic farmyard animals for moral support !!!

I was like in tears when I read that

I just hope something interesting happens in my GCSEs when they turn up in 2 weeks

I'm just about to have my first GCSE exam this afternoon

Some people were discussing some of the things that the invigilators do during exams, anyone ever been one? And can anyone give me any tips as to what to watch out for

tuffty747 · 14 May 2008 at 10:53

Sounds interesting, i shall watch out for that, and i have an idea of the people who they will stop behind as well...

Although all the previous invigilators we've had have all been like old and serious looking, mind you I wouldn't put it past them, they've basically got nothing to do for hours on end...

The woman, that is actually a tank, but has a tiny head.

Yeah LOL!

However for our mocks last year, i sware there was a REALLY hot woman, and i sware some guys dropped their pencils/pens on purpose...

Thread revival!

Even if it is my own

Yesterday in the exam, i noticed a lad in front of me to the right, stop writing, and then occupied a very scared looking face. Turns out a wasp had landed on him! and was crawling around his shirt. The invigilators ran around and paniced for a bit, then rushed him outside, was rather amusing to watch, got me through my biology exam.
Probably gonna be the most eventful thing that will happen in my exams...
