There will be some fairly serious repercussions if they don't fix it by the morning.
3000 people checking two A3 pieces of paper = approx 2500 students late to begin their exam through no fault of their own.

I kind of wonder if it's the I.T. department's fault or if they're just understaffed and underfunded and have to deal with half-dead useless hardware/software to keep the servers in good condition.

That said, of all the times this had to happen >___>

Wow, I saw students at the MBB2 exam (3 hours, 15 minutes allocated) leaving after 30 minutes. I've always wondered if people who leave that early are really wonderful or really terrible at the subject.

The latter, Ballerina.
They wouldn't write an exam that could be completed in full in 30 minutes.

I left after 2.5 hours because I didn't trust myself not to keep changing my answers, lols. My statistics professor said that when students change their answer, 75% of the time they changed it to the wrong one. I changed 1 of my answers 5 times. ~_~

They might be a little too confident and somewhat careless
