Tensions During Exam Writing By LESLIE COXALL Barrie North For the past week and half students at North ha ve been writing exams Any stud ent knows the feeling that this word gives and we at North are certainly experiencing it As the students arrive in the morning there is mingling of different feelings Some students are positively joyous because they have studied hard and feel that they are wellprepared but others which are the majority even though they have also studied hard cant seem to get that overflowing with loy feel lag The grade twelves and thir teens write as always to class rooms with their own forms The other grades are experienc ing something different this year as they are writing in the gyro The desks of all the downstairs moms in the old wing are in the gym in long rows which extend from the back to the front The students are seated in classes and from several op lnions of students writing in there it seems to be very satisfactory arrangement RESULTS At noon the cafeteria seems empty as there are only two grades as well as some grade thirteens writing each day As you pass down the nislcs as the students are eating you can hear Oh that was Biocstone or got different answer for that or What was the general trend of this reign or something pertaining to the exams just written There are cries of anguish as students find out the mistakes they made as well as squtmls of ioy they find that their answer was right QUIET After lunch the cafeteria quietens down to buzzing sound as students try to study for their next exam Most stud ents find that when sitting by themselves great deal of work can be done but who sitting with others it is exactly opposite At one oclock its back to the exam rooms Just before the exam starts there are phr ases of good luck and ltr oaks good luck to you too and hope your figures baianos echoed around the room WHEELS TURN As the exam starts calm silence descends and you can almost hear the wheels going around in everyones gray mat ter After what seems like an et ernity to be sitting and mom eat to be writing the exam the bell rings and teacher says Hand your papers in and leave quietly For while outside the room the exam dis cussed ond faces fail and light up alternately But one finds of students are all smiles as they leave the building or they know that they have now Salvation llrmy Rejects Remark OI
