No one at my school got their number recorded as far as I know, however I was only with 30 people in my grade, the other 200 was in the hall. The people I was with, are the higher calibre students, and most wouldn't risk being an idiot in an exam. Our examiners were nice, and we even remembered one of them from last year when we sat our history and geography SC.

0 - don't think anyone ever fails at our school. I know one who failed because she forgot to turn up, but that was a while ago. Don't know about anyone this year.

Was funny really. The teachers were yelling at us during the trials to stay quiet until all the papers were collected. Today, the examiner was like "Wow! I've never had such a quiet group!" and everyone started cracking up xD

wow. i was annoyed at the examiners tho. i asked one: does this line point to inside the uterus, on the line or in the uterus lining? it's kinda vague. and she said: just look where the line ends. translation: i've got no idea

i hate people who say things to sound like they know something when they're absolutely useless

lol :spin:
Don't worry, the School Certificate doesn't count unless you are leaving school in year 10. It's just a chance to sit an external paper with external supervision and get a taste of the stress that will be the next 2 years! :)

Orrrrr, they aren't allowed to tell you the answer...I think that's a more logical explanation

Wow. The worst we had was a girl started getting really really really frustrated at her rubber and almost knocked over the desk :p
oh my word yes. she started complaining about the desk squeaking when she rubbed.

I got called for talking with like 10 minutes left in one of our trials when I mouthed something to the person next to me, so I just put my head down and didn't leave a chance of it happening again.

I wish our school was more exciting, with people cheating and talking etc. *sighs*

I'm not sure for English as I had special provisions and was out of the hall

Although for science nobody
One persons phone was making the low battery beep and supervisors noticed and pointed in the general direction but they didn't do anything

And about the previous comment on the supervisors writing your number down. That's because they have to write all the numbers of people sitting beside each other. Apparently it's a Board of Studies requirement. It sucks because I was sitting next to the girl in my school who comes #1 for Science every year.

i was surprised that noone gotten their numbers written down today ! Because on the trials our year was the worst year the school has ever gotten and the principal even said it at our half-yearly. And we were so bad in our trails ! Everyone was screaming something out and moaning out weird stuff at trails.I guess noone wanted to repeat.

LOL thats what happened at our trials too. they were pushing the tables for fun and one of the tables collapsed. then the guy on my row asked to marry me but that was the trials. suprisingly everyone was quiet today for SC.

I don't think so.

My usually rowdy grade who normally whistle during tests and have fake coughs became timid and quiet in the presence of the foreign supervisors.

haha heaps of people needed to go to the toilet during one of the exams and our supervisor was like "don't think that when you finish your exam you can go to the toilet and entertain yourself!" or something like that LOL. everyone took it the wrong way and burst out laughing but she didn't do anything :)

I don't know about other schools but in my school there is a list of where everyone is sitting and towards the end of the exam they take away your name card thing and work out who was away
