Strange/Funny happenings in exams?

Yeah I hated the idea of that when I did my GCSEs. I did the higher papers for English and Science I think but Intermediate for Maths. We were told in English that those on the Higher paper would fail the exam if we had a bad day and got less than a C grade because we'd fall into oblivion. I wish they could just do a single paper.

There's an intermediate paper?

I think that must have been the one I took, apparently my mark was a high B, paired with 0 marks for 2 courseworks I scraped a C.
 
AS General Studies was the best exam. Half the room just surreptitiously talked throughout whilst throwing things at each other, and the other half had agreed beforehand on which bizarre word they were going to get into their answer ('pineapple', 'quadbike', 'moistly' etc.)

Best exam was GCSE d.t mocks.

First of all, everyone was throwning compasses against each other. :eek:
Then one kid was blowing a bottle cap in the air, all u hear was oh **** before it hit him on the head. :rolleyes:
One kid pretended he had terets (probably spelt wrong) and shouted out the W bomb through the whole exam. :p
And then the same kid, looked over at one of the graphics exams and spotted that we were just shading in a cylinder. He just shout "what the **** how come they are shading and i have to answer questions".

that school sucks, if someone would have disturbed me in a real exam such as examples above id have probably broken atleast 2 of their bones later
 
I remember in one of my GCSE exams (English IIRC), my friend just starting dribbling ********* of saliva all down onto his front and making loads of weird gargling noises... was utterly hilarious. Unsuprisingly, he failed all of his GCSEs... but it was probably worth it just for the laughs.
 
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 :p

just watch out for them randomly stopping behind students, especially if another invigilator is at the front of the exam hall watching them ;)

they'll have asked the other a question along the lines of "most likely to be pregnant or pregnant already?" and then the other stands behind who he/she thinks is the preggers one :D

sadly i dont think ill be doing invigilating this year :( but i look forward to any oppurtunity that may come along :p
 
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...

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... :p

i always hated the tiny tables they have for exams, there always slanted so the second you put your pen/pencil down at the wrong angle it rolls off >_<

back when i did my exams i had a really bad cold, contantly blowing my nose in the middle of the exam hall, running out of tissue and having to use a sleave etc, and of course just to add insult to injury the cold goes the second the exams finish, sure id of done better if i hadnt been sniffing, sneezing, blowing my nose all through my GCSEs :p
 
In RE exam in year 10... a small bird flew through the vent in the top of the hall, more and more students started to notice it and began to laugh.. then said bird took aim and **** all over 3/4 people including there papers. Major laughs all round, and the papers still had to be sent off in the poo'ey state!
And of course in year 11 GCSES the normal passing wind, whistling.. and one of my mates asking an invigilator for her number during the exam!!
 
Back when I did GCSEs, there was this bird above one of my friends table. Me and this girl were just watching this bird, waiting and hoping it would poo on him. Spent ages watching, about 10mins, then we gave up. Just as we looked away, it took a big poo onto his exam paper!

We lol'ed.
 
About 6 years ago I was doing a Geography exam at University (an elective), and there were about 300 people in a large hall. We all had these old desks - they didn't have single legs, rather they had 2 U shaped metal legs.

Some guy about 3 rows in front of me dropped his pen or something, and started leaning forward to try and reach it. He was leaning quite far forward, straining to reach it, when the desk reached its tipping point (due to the U shaped legs) and toppled right over, with him landing on top of it. Cue about 40 people surrounding him bursting into laughter, closely followed by the remainder of the room... was difficult to concentrate after that.
