first exam: done

my first exam is finally done but it was a very difficult birth... really!!

First of all, I knew it was open book, so I kind of blew off studying until the last two days before... well, as usual ^^

And 6hrs before the exam, I looked like this:
well, I was pissed off at studying, after 7hrs straight with a maximum break of 30mins you can't blame me, and I really hated www.leo.org & my dictionnary, cos both were VERY VERY often insufficient to provide me with the necessary information... ^^

then I gave up studying and went to sleep, woke up early enough, I checked the tram times again so I would be there early enough not to stand at closed doors... First shock, M. called, "oh yeah, our tram is leaving in wait... 5minutes. can you make it?" - "Of course I can" was my reply, already fiddeling nervousely to lock my dorm door... and I ran 700m straight to the tram stop. In 3 minutes. with a backpack. nothing in my stomach. and no chocolate in sight. I think I should be rewarded for that ;D

needlesss to say I got the tram, we were there early enough and EVERYBODY was nervous and flipping through their docs over and over... 08.00 AM: exam time... way too early, never will I do that again...
because, this exam was THE horror... 22 pages, 6 of them were for the case study, which asked us to analyze a company in 3 different ways and to describe a good strategy for the creation of a subsidary. that prof is a little crazy I guess... cos after that we also had 10 theory question with answers to write & 5 multiple choice questions. and guess what, NOBODY finished the exam in time... although there were some high achievers who were still writing after he called the time^^

I have to say one thing I am proud of though: I wrote 98% of the exam in French although I was allowed to write in English... I hope my goodwill(^^) gives me more points ;))


everybody looked so beat & wrought out... and the most-heard sentence of today definitely was "c'est NUL!!!!" (=that was complete bulls***t!!) & "trop dur, il est fou"(=way too difficult, he is crazy)... well, an agreement there, iLike that ;D
and there obviousely was the exam for the fulltime and part-time students at the same time, never saw this many guys in a suit at 8AM at a university ;))

well, as for how I looked after the exam... watch for yourself^^

hope you enjoy my difficulties :P
