Doing exams when ill?


I just did an exam (it was a makeup one as I missed the original due to being unwell) and I was still very unwell with severe bronchitis. I had to do the exam within a certain number of days or get an F. So I took it, and did horribly, I had a fever of 102 plus bad cough and headache. I know it affected my ability to do well. So I probably got an F anyway. Ugh. How do you deal with exams when you're really poorly?

Power through and do your best. Especially in your particular situation. Some points is much better than zero points.

Yep that's what I had to do. I've been unwell for 11 days now, am on 3 meds, but I can't miss another class so plod on I must! It's just sucky as I have a perfect 4.0 at the moment and this one exam is more than likely going to ruin that, and there's nothing I can do about it. Hate being ill, what a waste of time and potential!

I was in this predicament last week during my A&P2 exam. I was sick and on medication so it was very hard to focus, and studying for it during the weekend was even more difficult. I got a D on it. I'm disappointed but I'm kind of surprised I even did that well considering. Just power through it and I'm sure you'll do better next time.:yes:
