International student here! For A Levels, we have two Math papers and two Geography papers, three hours each :smile:
3hr computing exam :frown:
Two and a half exams for A2 geography and English language
After 3 hours consecutive doing a written exam, people seem to lose concentration. In many ways they start to go on "tilt". As exams are supposedly a test of ability not necessarily tenacity I believe this is why they are limited at 3 hours.

I have 2 3 hour exams this year (step 1 and step2). The longest exam I've had before was 2.45 Chinese AS.
my longest a level exam was 2 1/2 hours long which was an a2 geography one
however at uni i have done a 4 hour exam, that was horrible to do

Thanks, I just can't wait for them to be over! I won't know what to do with myself...
Two hours and fifteen minutes :/
The longest exam I've had was a German exam which was just over three hours including extra time. That was painful, way too long. The three hour long intermediate Maths Olympiads are also painful.

I think mine was AS Philosophy and Ethics which was two 1 and a half hour long papers one after the other.
But the longest paper I had to do was probably A2 English Lit which I think was 2 and a half hours long
Straight 3 Hour Computing Exam! :proud:
In my case, 3 hours Advanced Higher History :redface:
3 hour A2 Modern History exam which I sat on the same day as my 2.5 hour A2 English Language exam. Such an enjoyable day.
