Hi there. How was your paper today?
Not so bad Lucia. How was yours?
I couldn’t answer all the questions. Did you attempt all?
No. I left a five mark question on African history.
Geez...I didn’t do three!
It’ll be alright. You don’t write as many wrong answers as me!
Well most of the ones I did were correct, but 15 marks count!
There’s no point in worrying now. C’mon, let’s study for the next exam.
Was your exam alright Freda?
Yes John. It was fine. How are your preparations going on?
Not too good! I’m expecting a tough paper this time.
Well, you can crack it if you work hard.
I’m a bit nervous!
C’mon John! Don’t over stress yourselves. You still have a month!
Can I borrow your paper? Last year many questions were similar to yours.
Oh sure!
Hey John, did you hear the news?
News? No.
They’ll change the exam pattern for the social work paper!
What’ll they change?
I just confirmed it from Mr. Smith. It’ll be an open book exam!
So, we can carry books to the exam?
Not only books, we can even use the internet!
Will it should be a piece of cake then!
Definitely! It’s going to be really easy.
Hello there! How was your exam?
Oh Gloria! I think I did very well!
Wow! So, you’ve really smashed up the final semester!
I am expecting a great result this time!
Great Cohen! Are you planning for masters?
Sure I am! In fact I’ve already sent applications to a couple of colleges.
You’re always steps ahead Cohen! Sure you’ll do something awesome someday!
