my school is an out-dated modern school.

Architecture of the older buildings, are so called modern.

But,

interiorly, partially modern, partially OLD.

Like the LIFT is super SLOW..and OLD!

Doesn't align with the floor.

and creeks.

ha!

More about exams...

1. In NTU we are allowed to plan our time table + exam time table. If there is a clash, they would not allow you to submit that time table.

But here, we can only plan our time table, and hope for the best for exam time table.

dang.

2. Exam Venue and Seat No.

In NTU, the exam venues are just those few. HALL A, B, C , blah blah. They are designated halls. With multi papers being taken.

But here, the exam venue is not written in your own exam link, you have to check with your school, dang!

And we are not given any seat no. at all.

Depending on the school, some would issue u a random seat no. on the spot when u reach the exam hall, then you sit there.

So troublesome.

Inefficient.

*Steph's Take on this:

1. Inefficient

2. More work to be done.

3. Attendance marking, more difficult and tedious

4. Collection of papers, are not collected according to seat no. So when markers mark your papers, they are gonna have a hell time collating our mark. (probably errors do occur then!)

5. More work for markers to assign marks to student as we are all mixed up and not according to the attendance sheet.

3. Water Bottle Regulation

Your water bottle has to be CLEAR AND TRANSPARENT.

i.e. mineral water bottle color.

My pink TRANSPARENT water bottle was rejected. WTH

they say no TINTED colored bottles.

CRAP.

Don't get the logic at all.

4. No Tissue Paper

You are not allowed to bring in tissue paper during the exams.

dang!

are they so hard core about it? like ppl are going to cheat and stuffs... if u are dying from cold and flu, how? use ur exam script and blow ur nose? IDEA.

drip all your mucous all over the paper. HEH

5. No SWEETS

die lah. I always love to chill on my chill pill.

HAH!

6. Reading Time

Given 10 mins of reading time. During which you cannot write anything!

What for.

7. Exam Booklet

- You have to write all these..

1) NAME

2) course id/name

3) student id

4) sign

well number 2,3, and 4 ok.. but NAME?

talk about discrimination mannnsss...

In NTU, you will hear this familiar announcement:

Do not write your name on any of the booklets or anywhere inside your booklets.

WEIRD SCH.

not only about that....

you have to write all those things, either before the reading time starts, which is definitely not enough time,

or DURING the exam time limit.

After which, you are not allowed to fill those things in.

WTH

waste time!

8. Declaration Form

We have to fill in this declaration form:

Saying you wont cheat, u will adhere to the rules, and all the blah shit...

Why dun they juz state that all on the exam booklet since we are signing it.

Stupid school.

We don't even need to do that for NTU.

Its a pre-page which we have to accept before we view our exam seat no. and venue.

9. Confiscated my pencil case

WTH.

It was a clear folder pencil case, I just want to take our an additional pen cause I only took out 1 initially.

And the invigilator said that if I want to take anything out, I have to raise my hand.

DANG?

its already transparent. how can i cheat!

stupid.

This school is weird.

Dumb.
