Exam Week

Exam week (n): The most stressful week known to students. Some rather large tests spawned from the deep fiery pits of hell. Teenagers tend to promise to study and prepare, but end up cramming the last night and crying themselves to sleep. If one fails the exam, it is known to pull the grade down, therefore causing an inhuman build up of stress.
Person: Hey did you study for Exam Week ?

Other person: What exa- oh no! *cries into fetal position*

Exam maths

Doing the maths relating to an upcoming exam, with 2 possible motivations:

1. To scare yourself into realising you don't have long left to revise and look over stuff.... or
2. To deliberately waste the time you could be using way more productively

These may well combine....
C: Sh*t i just worked out that I have 20 working hours til my exam in 3 days.... taking out the time I need to sleep, eat, gym, shop, fb, tweet, email, hang out, watch TV.... its even less if I want to shower too!

R: You do realise you spent 3 hours working on that exam maths....

---
C: Cr*p I just did some exam maths and realised I need to get at least 62/100 for this exam, because theres no way Im going to get above 48 in that other one, and my coursework would only be a 59 at best... although that only counted for 40% so weighted its like a 65 or something...

R: Do some work.

exam week marathon

That awful week when you have to take an exam every single day. Which means you have to study every single day for the exam of the next day. Known for the constant headaches, few hours of sleep and for being extremely tiring. The constant daydreaming of Friday night, which means you won't study anymore, is totally normal.
