Once again, knee deep in papers, books, red pen
Struggling with the weight of expectation; buried in work.
For half of us, life spent poring over harsh red marks on hours of sweat;
For the other half, hours spent pouring out frustration in a river of red ink.
"You will LOSE MARKS if you don't put in the UNITS!"
"Miss out question 2(c). The style of the paper has changed but you can only download those from the last three years, and this is the best we've got."
READ. THE. QUESTION.
GOOD LUCK!

Nice job. I enjoyed this. The difference in perspectives is well done. I teach adults and have a different perspective. Very well done.

Lol. This is so perfect for AP test season. An interesting topic choice. I liked the play on poring/pouring. '"You will LOSE MARKS if you don't put in the UNITS!"' made me giggle. How many times have I heard that sentiment...Overall, I enjoyed this. I'll have to show it to my friends who are stressing over exams, we can all be entertained by it.
