eating in exams (2 Viewers)

[maryBRAHS]

just wondering, are students allowed to eat during exams?
obviously not like full packets of chips and shit that makes so much noise + is distracting
but as in chew gum, suck on lollies etc

i was under the impression that you could but a teacher at my school made me spit my lolly out during my IPT exam (it was a 3 hr exam as well *sigh*) =.= i think you can though. depends on the supervisor. generally you can i think.

Actually i think theres a thing on the board of studies that says that you can - but i'm not sure. you'll have to check with a teacher at school or something.

I think you can if you're diabetic. If not, tough shit, it's distracting.

Yeah, I always chew gum, or have a cough lolly or something. I even put gum in my mouth or open a cough lolly in the exam. Noone really cares...unless I like made a huge noise whilst unwrapping the lolly or something. But yeah, if I was told not to, I wouldn't really care.

lol on the rules for my trials it says no food of any sort, and u must have a clear bottle with water only... those rules didnt last long.

According to the Rules and Procedures booklet for the 2009 HSC, unless you are a diabetic you are NOT allowed to eat in the HSC exams.

I know at my school we don't allow any form of eating in any exam because of that rule that applies to the HSC itself.

LOLS yeah i usually chew gum anyways
for the trials at my school, everyone brings in labeled water bottles even cordial and shit but i doubt they'll get away with that in the HSC

would drinking coke be allowed in a exam ?

 

[ninetypercent]

my school doesn't let it happen, because people might put cheat notes in their gum wrapper.

 

[ehtefaz.hedayet]

water only

coz i saw one of my peers drinking coke during an exam

 

[ehtefaz.hedayet]

well get a throat lolly, I'm sure they wont mind

 

[sickk]

i drink hot chocolate in a thermas, little 1 or 2 minute break between each section, and to kill time at the end lol, not ahuge 1L thermas rofl, just like one of those little coffee ones, and we have external examiners for the trials to "get used to the real thing" and noones said anything, i wouldnt be suprised if HSC examiners were anal but

we're not allowed to eat in the exam but my maths teacher came in and gave us all bali sugars to eat throughout the MX2 exam. he said supposively it is meant to enhance our concentration, he didnt seemed convinced just thought it was a good excuse to give us a treat. the business studies kids spewed with jealousy haha.

 

[ninetypercent]

I'm surprised at how lenient some schools are.

pro tip: on the day of ur final exam fill your clear no labelled water bottle with straight vodka, or any other straight spirit u like.

when (or if) u fiinish early start getting really really drunk in the last hour or so of the exam.

stumble out of the hall screaming when the exams are finally done
