"Ummm…Are You Finished?"

This afternoon I wrote the GSM networks exam that I was slightly really worried about. The exam was scheduled for 09:00 this morning. I started studying yesterday, but was concerned because although I had previous exams to practice with, I didn’t have the solutions!

Around midnight I was speaking to one of my classmates who informed me that the exam had been postponed to 13:00 and that they would be studying as of 09:00 (good thing I decided to say Hi to him!). These guys had been studying for the past 2 weeks and so they had worked out all the solutions to the previous exams. I was able to review those for about 3 hours and then headed into the exam.

Most of the questions were quite similar and I was finished in 7 minutes. Yes, you read correctly. I finished a 2 hour exam in 7 minutes. I forced myself to review it VERY slowly so I was actually finished in about 15 minutes. I needed to answer 16 correctly to pass and 22 correctly to get a better grade. I’m sure I passed (which is all I really needed) but it’s also quite possibe I got more than 22. :) When I finished, the invigilator (and the people around me) looked a little stunned, but then she informed me that I had to stay in the exam room for at least an hour! :(

While sitting around waiting, I thought again about how lucky/blessed I am that events [in my life] always seem to work out in my favor. Had the exam not been postponed and if I didn’t have the solutions, I don’t think I would have passed, especially not in 15 minutes… ;)
