And they force you to wait outside the hotel, which sucks.

I know right? Its so early! I've been dreading it ALL year, and it will be over tomorrow!!! =DDDDDD

Do we really have to wait outside the hotel?

(Am going to Box Hill tomorrow also..)

What are the rules for there? Are we allowed to take bags and stuff? Do we just leave them outside the room? *so confused! O~O*

(And does anyone else find the idea of doing an oral in a hotel room a little dodgy..?)

We had to wait outside last year =[

Last year I'm pretty sure we had a place where we could leave bags, so it's fine.

Yes, doing "orals" in hotel rooms are a bit dodgy.

Would the examiners mark me more harshly since I'm doing it on the last day of orals :S ( since I would have more time than everyone else)?

I doubt they'd mark you harshly because of that... what you WOULD have to be wary of is that there would have been a lot of people of very high standard before you. Then again - they've probably seen it all =P

I had my Japanese oral in Box Hill hotel 2 days ago.
Surprisingly, I wasn't stressed at all. I felt pretty happy with mine -
I was just glad to be finished so I can finally focus on some other subjects for once haha!

What time do they start the Orals? I've got mine (hebrew) @9AM on Wednesday. Just wondering if I'm the first?

Did my jap oral at the hotel inn at essendon .___."
it was raining hardcore that day, and me and my friends arrived about roughly 1 1/2 hours early (just to practice), so we had to wait outside in the freezing weather and it to top it off, they don't have anywhere for you to practise inside. So you have to wait outside, and wait for your turn. Horrible organisers >.<

i got room two lmao :3 nice examiners haha ^^ 2 ladies as well D: one was native for me
what was your detailed study on ?
i think i went alright~ not great though!
did they ask you question's that you did not prepare for?
i was praying that they would^ ask me q's that i could answer back with strong answers T.T" i actually talked about cosplaying with one of the examiners for quite a while O.O
overall if the weather was better... that would've made my mood better~!
