Re: Have you ever seen someone get disqualified from an exam?
Some person in my friends maths exam just stood up in the middle of it and started shouting strange things and throwing his table around, it put everyone off and pretty much everyone didn't finish the exam.
They took him out, but I don't know if he was disqualified, there's something wrong with him, I think it's autism or aspergers. -
Re: Have you ever seen someone get disqualified from an exam?lol im late to all my exams cos they are 2 hours long but i only need an hour and they dont say anything(Original post by SpringNicht)
That's weird, I've seen people come in an hour late and be allowed to sit the exam... -
Re: Have you ever seen someone get disqualified from an exam?
I just remembered another exam hall story.
We had a new student from Afghanistan who had joined our school a few months before that.
When he finished his exam, he got up, and shouted out, 'Sir, I'm finish my exam'
Everyone was like WTF.
I think he was let off simply because it was the first time he ever sat an exam here.
Good times. -
It was 15 minutes long so it would have made some difference with that extra time. And a couple of exams before he had given us all a big telling off for not stopping at the end.(Original post by Rascacielos)
They do that?
Next time I'll be more careful to not keep writing after the invigilator says 'stop'. -

Today I was doing my Philosophy exam and we had to share our exam room with some Level 2 Business Studies students. Anyway, there was a fly in our exam room and this girl started screaming and saying to the invigilator "Oh my days, I cannot concentrate in this facility with that fly innit" she started hitting it with the exam paper btw. I thought she was going to get thrown out but the invigilator just laughed at her stupidity.

I've just got disqualified from an A2 exam for putting my revision material under my desk without thinking when I went in. Pretty stupid in hind-sight but I put them upside down so nothing was visible. Apparently even if you can't possibly see the notes and the examiner in the room verifies you didn't try to look at them even once you can still be disqualified for having them in the room. Lame :'((Original post by SpringNicht)
Just wondering, has anyone actually seen someone get their paper ripped up?
I've seen someone get an initial warning but nothing more

I guess you weren't thinking? Didn't anyone say something before you went inside?

Re: Have you ever seen someone get disqualified from an exam?
I remember in an actual GCSE science exam, about 20 people from the year above started shouting out 'slag' at the elderly invigilator. It was obviously a pre planned thing, and because everyone had their heads down looking at their papers, the invigilators couldn't even tell who it was, as so many people were saying it. Needless to say, I've never had to suppress a laugh more urgently.

Yeah - the idiot had his headphones hanging out of his shirt, so was asked to remove them by an invigilator. He could have probably gotten away with it if they hadn't been attached to his iPhone in his pocket. He got zero for that exam, but luckily kept his marks in other exams for that series.

AS Theology exam - for some reason that takes a long time to explain, this particular exam was worthless to everyone in my class.
My friend wrote a 10 page dissertation on his Football manager tactics, I went on a particularly long and offensive rant about religion in general, and some one else drew a beautifully intricate biro drawing of the back of the person taking an exam sitting in front of him. He, by the way, got kicked out.
Also, my best friend, who has a reputation for being an outrageous nerd, sat there for an 2 hours writing nothing and when asked why he wasn't writing anything, he simply replied "exam tactics miss" and got some good laughs. -

I got unreasonably angry with John Prescott in that exam...
