    what can I do for 2 1/2 hours in isolation from exams
    I have an exam clash tomorrow morning, but my college makes you wait till the afternoon to sit the second of the two. This means I have 2 hours in supervised isolation, without a phone, ipod, computer or any notes for the next exam. What can I do???

    Make new notes? if you're allowed a pen and paper, just note down all the stuff you remember?

    I had a period of isolation when I had an exam clash... I ate food and did revision, they said i could have my notes with me and stuff... and I was lucky that someone else had a clash too, so I had one person to talk to...

    What did you do in the end? I don't see why you couldn't have notes with you? Other people can revise up to a few minutes before the exam.

    I was in the end allowed a text book that they had checked, just not my own notes, and I had a nice chat to the invigilator... it was actually alright!
