Title: ANNOYING EXAMINERS
Post by: Insane_Emm on November 02, 2007, 05:54:25 pm
Two major complains about the examiners at my english exam

1. they spoke to us at great length about the evils of having a mobile phone, and then the examiners phone rang four times. yeah, hypocrite or what?

and 2. they read out all the rules and instructions and then realised that they were the GAT rules and instructions and had to start again. SO. DAMN. ANNOYING.

Lol sorry :P

My supervisors were a bit clueless, but they were generally polite so i guess i was lucky. However there was this guy sitting beside me who kept tapping his feet (on floorboards mind you) which annoyed the fuck out of me, but no one told him off..

Oh well

our examiners were ok, but they are the same every year, is that normal ?

anyways with about 5 mins to go they decided to tell everyone the front of their script booklets should be filled out, but i'd filled mine out at the start soo it was all good.

They spent 5 mins before we started, explaining that if anyone was caught with a mobile phone, they were fked.

Other than that they were ok i guess.

The supervisors that my school had were alright I guess... Well, compared to all the people being mentioned here :P. Strangely enough, they didn't mention anything about mobile phones...

Heh, the supervisor my group had for the GAT a while back nearly fell asleep :P

I only found out recently that the school themselves hire the supervisors (and I'm assuming pays them too).

Who determines the agreement the supervisors are bound to, the school or the VCAA? (is there a collective agreement for supervisors)? What's to prevent a school from hiring supervisors who don't give a crap about the rules, etc.?

Post by: karina on November 25, 2007, 01:15:37 pm
not much can stop them, i know a school which i wont name that allows people to talk, overlooks many things, they also dont have clocks which tell the exact time, i had a countdown timer which counts time to the second, and i found on one exam they said we had 5 minutes remaining when we only had 3 but then stopped us about a minute earlier, and another exam they stopped us about 1.5 minutes after time, which actualy can make a difference..

what i find really annoying though is how the supervisors never start on time, its a little thing and they always give us made up time, but it is hard for me to calculate how much time i spend on each qstn wen they start at 12:08 as oppose to 12:00

Post by: 190290 on November 26, 2007, 05:17:01 pm
i think it really depends on your school, ours was very strict with the time and stuff, the person would wait until exactly to the second when we were to start and stuff. They even allowed time to read out the rules and stuff so would even start if they had to while people were still sitting down
