wtf, english and spesh on the same day!!!

we had that back in 2006
That was really shit. I dropped like 3-4 marks on that exam. I reckon I would've dropped much fewer had I not been so exhausted after the English exam.

Yeah, at least they have Spec Exam 2 a couple of days after, not a huge gap like they had this year.

Yeh, but the advantage is subjective

You might have accounting and lit

That means you sit one after another, it depends on the subjects

Yeh but you have to agree that if 2 people of equal mathematical abilites, but one is doing eng-language and the other is doing english, the language staudent has a higher chance of doing well in spesh AND spesh only. yes?

Is having specialist exams far apart a bad thing for most people?
Is it the anticipation and the nerves that negatively affect them?

For methods this year, I had one on Friday and the other on Monday but I didn't know what to think of it.

Is there some type of special consideration if you have 3 exams on one day?

I think you can apply to have one of the exams moved to the following day, though it comes with some pretty stringent rules

Maybe if there's like 10,000+ signatures in hard copy? I don't think they will consider any of those online petitions.
