Confirmed: no bags into the exam venue this semester; if you bring one along you'll have to store it in the big storage crate outside.

Alternatively, you can do what I do. I don't like walking around and catching public transport with a stupid clear packet containing my stationery, so I carry it in an ordinary shopping bag and tie it to a pole near the door when I arrive at the venue. The only pitfall is if someone steals your plastic bag, but hopefully it's worthless enough that nobody would do that. It's worked for me so far.

It's actually kind of funny - I did it for my first semester exams last year and was the only one that seemed to do it, but when I rocked up for my semester 2 exams last year I noticed three or four plastic bags tied to a pole. Looks like I may have set a trend.

Or alternatively for all the gals out there, bring a thin canvas bag and a big wallet or a clutch so you can carry everything in the canvas bag on PT then fold it up into your wallet for the exam

Was just stopping by at atarnotes trying to look for some motivation to study but having read some of your responses guys I think I'll be looking elsewhere...

That's time well spent I would say. After all you are on your way to becoming a Pokemon Master then you can go on to get your Pokemon PhD hahaha

Anyone have experience with applying for special consideration? (doesn't look like I'm going to be able to sit my exams) It says online that you have to apply within 3 days of the exam but does that mean I would have to do it for each one separately or...?

if your exams are spaced out such that you can apply for a few of them without breaking the 3 day rule, then you can apply for multiple in 1 application, otherwise you need to do separate applications. ie; if you have exams on monday tuesday wednesday and thursday, you can make 1 application on the wednesday for all 4.
if you have any other questions PM me i am very familiar with the process

Haven't got a clue, but whatever the problem is, I hope everything works out alright.
