So due to the recent earthquake my university has closed down for a week to repair and inspect damage. As a result, all lectures and assessments have been pushed back a week. The exception is the exam timetable, which has remained the same. Therefore we don't get our usual study week before exams. Immediately after lectures finish we go straight into an exam period.
Some of us are fighting this decision because we think it's completely unreasonable to expect us to prepare for our exams over the course of a single weekend. What are your thoughts?
Yes, we have a week to do extra preparation now, but we haven't even started the second term of the semester, so we have only had lectures on half of the material.
