Who was there at REB doing a two hour exam today?

Out of interest, who was at the Royal Exhibition Building doing a two hour exam today?
It was a nice experience (being in a uni environment). Quite hectic though. Never expected like 1500 students in the same hall taking exams at the same time... yeah :P

Oh, and what exam were you taking?

You basically just look at the signs then try and guess where you are.  It's an art which takes an exam period to master.

So true. First semester I was all over the place and it took my ages. Now I'm like a seasoned proffessional.

Ahh there's huge posters hanging from the ceiling saying "1200-1800" (seat numbers) etc.

The Mac.Rob/MHS entrance exam was in the REB. :)

I remember it being exceptionally cold, but I presume that wouldn't be too much of a problem in November. Just wondering, do the UMEP kids sit the exams in REB too?

I had to bloody sprint to my seat when I had my Transport Processes exam because 5 mins before reading time, I had dropped my wallet somewhere in those stupid shipping containers >.< (someone handed in my wallet to one of those officials so it was kinda all good but I lost some reading time >.<)
