Did you ever have a final exam that was FUN?

[BCRanger10]

Yes, FUN. Or at least that you enjoyed taking. What class was it and what was the final?

When I was in college, I took a theater class focusing on on-stage combat. We learned moves like the simulated slap, punch, throw, and a host of others. For the final exam, we were partnered up and had to write a scene in which each person used all the moves we learned.

If you're interested, here's the scene my partner, whom we'll call Sweden (he was an exchange student from there), and I performed...

We're walking into an office building. I played someone already working there and Sweden was coming in for a job interview. We start chatting and arrive at the elevator.

The elevator is full and has space for only one more person. I insist that he gets on board so he's not late for his interview. Sweden insists that I get on so that I'm not late for work. A brief argument ensues, culminating in him throwing me onto the elevator.

We fight for a few minutes, tossing humorously immature insults. The scene ends with both of us struggling for breath and to stand up straight. I get a phone call...

"Hi, this is Ranger... yeah... yeah... okay, I'll take care of that this afternoon. Thanks, bye."

"Wait...you're Ranger?"

"Yes."

"Hi, I'm Sweden. I have an interview with you today!"

"Oh, hi! Good to meet you. Um... why don't we go grab some coffee and talk about the position?"

"Great. I'm excited to explore the opportunity."

*SCENE*

None of my written exams were fun at all. But I did enjoy my solo performances on flute (with piano accompaniment). I completed a Bachelor of Music degree. Instrumental final exams were always great. We would prepare the entire year with our private tutors and through practicing on our own time. Then the big day would come at the end of the spring semester. I was required to perform in front of a “jury” - a panel of 3 music professors, including my tutor. They would then evaluate and grade the performance.

The very last one I did was in my 4th year, and so it was called the Graduation Recital. It was a huge event for all the graduating students as we were to perform in the university concert hall, invite our friends and family, and make it a much more formal occasion than the regular panel evaluations. We had near total control over how we presented our music, how we decorated the stage, and how we advertised for it throughout the whole university (it was open for anyone who wanted to attend). Pretty much the only caveat was that we needed to dress formally - female students are required to wear an appropriate gown or long dress, and male students are required to wear a tuxedo, just as we would be required to dress for a typical orchestral performance.

Final exams in college are probably longer than middle school final exams. I don't see them as fun but I don't mind taking them because I know the material well enough so I always do well.

Hummm... Only once that I can recall. There was a class in college that I just had a "knack" for and I had a 97% going into the final. And I knew my stuff going into final, so it was kind of fun.

Wish I could say yes but Never. Can't wait to see what class people choose. Maybe human sexuality..

[Labokachulaa]

When I was in college, yes, because that meant we had potluck. Lol

[exitseven]

No, they were all horror shows. Every last one of them,

What? Exams are fun? I had more fun shaming gold diggers.

Noooooo even hearing the word feels me with stress
