true_rover Posted April 27, 2012 Share Posted April 27, 2012 Old men that are under the impression that exam time can't be stressful. Hardly old, and just have professional exams to worry about 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimmy85 Posted April 27, 2012 Share Posted April 27, 2012 Right. I'd say school kids are quite entitled to feel a little stressed around exam time. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NotThePars Posted April 27, 2012 Share Posted April 27, 2012 On the topic of exams... The complete apathy I have over my exams this year. Usually I become a panic the week before an exam but it didn't even hit half an hour before my first exam earlier. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smpar Posted April 27, 2012 Share Posted April 27, 2012 (School) exams are stressful, and there's no denying that SGs are very important as they essentially decide what you take in 5th year, so it's understandable that 4th years are a bit 'lost' and go between classes for final preparation etc. However, some 4th years at my school are taking the piss; they have been strolling in and out of all my own classes, caiming first priority and completely ignoring the fact that me and my other classmates are sitting higher exams in less that 2 weeks' time. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The same applies to most Highers. They're about as 'stressful' as being employed as an ice-cream taste tester. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raith Against The Machine Posted April 27, 2012 Share Posted April 27, 2012 School exams are stressful for a lot of people because, at that point, you have no idea of how they compare to anything else. They're basically the most stressful thing you'll do by that point in life. In hindsight, they seem like a piece of piss, but it's not like that at the time. Except for me, obviously. I'm fucking ace. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mizfit Posted April 27, 2012 Share Posted April 27, 2012 I got 2's in all my standards, then left school with one higher after 6th year. Still annoys me I never put the time in, but I'm happy enough in my job anyway, might go back to college to resit some of my exams in a year or 2 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ScottR96 Posted April 28, 2012 Share Posted April 28, 2012 I don't find Highers particularly stressful, but it doesn't mean I'm going to walk into the exam having done no preperation and the 4th years in the car park kicking volleyballs off the school building doesn't exactly help. SG's are piss easy, but at the time they are quite a big deal. Although this didn't stop me cringing when I heard two girls discussing how hard their SG English exam was. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NotThePars Posted April 28, 2012 Share Posted April 28, 2012 Most Highers you can pass with a weekend of studying provided you've got some basic knowledge of it in the first place although that doesn't make it any less stressful so I wouldn't recommend it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
