yep, dozens of people ive heard. the board of studies really should be more careful when scheduling exams .. its way harsh for the people who cant complete a subject because of timetabling. i guess thats what they get for doing obscure subjects.


so godamn stupid.

I remember in my year, there was an odd clash. Like Japanese Continuers and Economics.

I assume you're going to sit the History exam, instead?

And it's not as if the Board doesn't know the numbers of clashes - they'd have timetabled it for the least possible ones.

What will probably happen (this is based on the experience of a student at my school some years ago who had 3U Geography and 2U Latin timetabled at the same time) is that you will do one exam in the morning and then be supervised until the start of the other exam so as not to come into contact with students/teachers who have been/are doing the exam that you still have to do/have done.

No student should have to pick which exam to do and not do the other exam for a subject that they have been studying. The BOS approved the approach outlined above and the student successfully completed both exams on the same day - just not at the same time as the other students doing one of the exams.

You can't get it changed. Everyone who has the same subjects is in the same boat. It happens every year, and is something that you just have to put up with.

Yes. And then next morning I have Legal Studies.

That'll be fun.

But Legal is my last exam, so there is a silver lining.
