Examination and Strongholds πŸ˜©πŸ˜‚



You people know that panic, that "I don tire for this life" feeling πŸ˜‚πŸ˜­ that usually comes with examinations?


That particular feeling when you suddenly start discovering several PDFs you didn't even know existed, just a day before your examination, after convincing yourself that you're fully prepared because you've been reading ahead of time? 😭


Omo!


Someone like me has been trying her best since the beginning of the semester...Though not every single day, I've at least been reading...Why? Because I know myself!


I don't know how some of you manage to cram an entire course overnight! If I try that kind of thing, my enemy will go craze! πŸ˜‚πŸ˜­


But beyond the personal examination stress, let me gist you about one particular lecturer..


Should I say he refused to come and teach us? Or let me put it this way: he has the kind of influence where he can decide not to teach, and practically nothing happens. πŸ˜‚


A stronghold, I tell you!


He's a practising lawyer, of course, like many of our lecturers. This particular one is a Professor of Law, a senior one at that! He has quite a number of achievements to his name.. His decisions sometimes feel almost binding! πŸ˜‚πŸ˜­


And guess what? He's also my godfather (academically)😊


Yes, he's actually a nice person, but most of my coursemates don't particularly like him. He's usually a different person when he's in class compared to when you meet him outside


But honestly, no matter what, I can't forget what he did for me, especially during my 100L daysπŸ₯²....What happened in my 100L?( Don't worry, that's another story for another day)😊


Now, back to my professor!


A friend and I decided to visit his office one day, just to say hello and also find out whether he was still going to come and teach us or not.


Mind you, we had TWO other lecturers taking that course. He was the third person, and he was only expected to handle ONE topic..


Just ONE! πŸ˜‚


We chatted a little in his office, and my friend eventually asked about the topic he was supposed to teach


Our examination was scheduled to start the following Monday, and the timetable was already out.


You know what this man said?


"Oh, I'll come and teach you guys next week."


We tried reminding him that, "Sir, our examinations would have started by then.


He calmly replied:


"Yes, according to your timetable, right?"


We answered, "Yes, sir"


And then he said:


"You can't start your examination next week. The timetable will be readjusted."


EWO! πŸ˜‚πŸ˜­πŸ€²


We thought he was joking until the Faculty of Law released another timetable!


Omo, ALL our examinations were shifted to the following week!


Other faculties had already started their examinations, but this my daddy said NO! πŸ˜‚πŸ˜­


Well, I enjoyed it to some extent because, at least, we had more time to prepare. But honestly, some people are real strongholds o! πŸ˜‚πŸ€²


The funniest part?


He actually came to teach us during that extra free week!


Unfortunately, some of my coursemates thought he wouldn't show up, so the class was scanty.


Lo and Behold, he came, and you know what followed?


WE DID A TEST!


TEST for watin you never even teach us???😭

Out of a class of about 68 students, only EIGHT people were present!πŸ˜‚πŸ˜­


I felt like fainting that day😩..

Even some people who were initially in class but stepped out to attend to one or two things were not allowed back in!


That day choke! My head first went blank. 😭


And that's not even the end of my examination wahala o..


Omo, this semester, we hardly had just ONE question paper per course!


It's either TWO, THREE or FOUR question papers!


WHO EXACTLY DID WE OFFEND? 😭😭


I even had a borrowed course this semester from the great Department of Political Science 😊


During that examination, we were given just ONE question paper each .. tell me why I kept looking around, checking if another question paper was still coming!


Imagine getting so used to multiple question papers that one question paper starts looking suspicious πŸ˜‚πŸ˜©

Β 

Omo no be life be this o!😭


I believe every department do experience this as well right? But seriously, I want to hear from you people....

1. Does your department also have that one lecturer everybody considers a stronghold? πŸ˜‚

2. What's the most stressful or funniest experience you've had during examination?Β 

3. Are you among those who read consistently before examinations or those who suddenly discover the existence of 15 different PDFs the night before and still cover it? πŸ˜­πŸ˜‚


Abeg, let's gist. I know I'm not alone in this! 🀣❀️
