So I have an exam 9:30 saturday morning....
1) WTF is this crap? Honestly.
2) Anyone have any tried and tested excuses for getting out of it? I'm allowed to do the makeup exam a month later if I can either produce a doctors certificate, or there is some 'personal situation.'

Personal situation?
Tell 'em you have erectile dysfunction and can't get up in the morning

Bah, that sucks. When I was in uni, they gave us a fucking statistics exam at 8am on a Sunday
Was. Not. Happy.

Yeah I'm sure they'll believe that :| Need something a little less blatantly BS
I've had a cold all week, I should have just skipped todays exam as well, gotten a medical certificate and done the makeup for both of them, maybe if I email my tutor and tell him I'm sick, but ask if I 'really' need a certificate since it's just a cold and I wouldn't really need to visit a doctor normally :| He's a pretty cool dude, might work?
I wouldn't care, but I really want to go out friday night, big night + friends last weekend here before he flies back out of the state.
Goddamnit.
What's the deal with this anyway? I mean surely lecturers have lives too? Can't they just spread the exams out over an extra week instead of running them on weekends, let alone so early in the morning?

If i don't take the test today and take it in august i still fail the class for the time being until i get my results. But there is no point on trying to put it for later because you are going to have to take is at some point...
