Re: NC: Dude Rolls in 2 Hours Late to Final Exam

Re: NC: Dude Rolls in 2 Hours Late to Final Exam
I'm so glad that I am ridiculous fast at taking exams. We usually get 3 hours for them at my school, and I can count on one hand the number of times I've used more than half the time. I'd rather walk out with 2:15 to go than walk in with :45 to go, but this wouldn't really stress me out that much.

But at a previous position there was a student (not in my class) who was the cousin of someone I knew from online (different board from 2+2 though). Nothing came of it.

Re: NC: Dude Rolls in 2 Hours Late to Final Exam
You took a "history of rock" course? I'm jealous! 9 years of college/grad school and the best I could do for fun was a basketball course my last semester as undergrad as a filler to maintain full-time status -- I broke my hand on the court a couple weeks into it.

Re: NC: Dude Rolls in 2 Hours Late to Final Exam
My junior year of college I had a B+ going into my final exam for a history class. I came up with the "brilliant" idea that since the exam would only take an hour or so of the three hours available that I could show up an hour late (I used that hour to study).
My professor was not at all impressed by my plan and glared at me as I entered the room. I made sure to finish up immediately as the other last student to finish was finishing. Predictably my exam performance was not strong enough to get an A. I don't think I had a chance. Borodog, are you annoyed at all by the student wasting your time or do you think that the student has the right to the entire exam period?
