more invigilation

Interesting side-effect of the mass abandonment of watches in favor of using the clocks built into cellphones: kids today can't tell time during exams.

Also, it's pretty funny when, in the middle of a 3 hour exam in a big echo-y gymnasium filled with 400 students, someone's cellphone starts to play the Harry Potter theme. More exams need John Williams scoring.

Yeah, think I did wear a watch through-out college. Usually on the inside of the wrist where it was less obvious when I was checking the time.

I take it these exams don't include the use of calculators? Always had the time on my HP.
