News from the Exams CoordinatorSOME REMINDERS FOR THE MOCK EXAMINATIONS 2008• Mock examinations are an excellent opportunity for you – use them sensibly. Prepare for the Januaryexaminations very thoroughly so that you have a positive experience, and so feeling that you canachieve your goals in May. Learning material thoroughly now will mean it is much easier to ‘relearn’it in May. Remember also that the scores count (suitably ‘curved’) as your semester examinations!• Read the IB examination regulations carefully – during the Mock examinations we follow basicallythe same rules.• There are normal classes on Tuesday 8th January and Wednesday 9th January 2008 – allstudents are expected to attend these classes.• If you do not have English as your first language you may use a basic translating dictionary betweenyour language and English in all examinations except language examinations. Give the dictionary,clearly labeled with your name and examination number, to me by Thursday 10th Januarymorning at the latest, and I will issue it in all appropriate examinations.• All students need a graphing calculator for Mathematics and Science examinations. The memorymust be cleared according to IB regulations. Give your calculator, clearly labeled with yourname and examination number, to your Math teacher for clearing / checking by Monday 14thJanuary morning at the latest, and I will issue it in all appropriate examinations. (Your Mathteacher may require more time to clear all calculators – please check with them that this date/timeare OK.)• Make sure you bring everything you need to each examination. At the minimum you should haveTWO black or blue pens, pencils, eraser, mm ruler, coloured pencils and/or highlighters … in a clearplastic bag. No bags or pencil cases are allowed. Wear a wristwatch (which doesn’t beep!!) and itcan be useful to have a bottle of drinking water. No food or other drink is allowed. No mobilephones or other electronic devices of any kind are allowed in the examination room under anycircumstances. Layers of clothing are useful as the temperature in the basement can vary a lot, andcan be quite cold! Bags etc. may be left in the cloakroom area in the basement, but not brought intothe examination area.• Morning examinations start at 08:45 – be in the basement area by 08:35 at the latest, and waitquietly to be invited into the examination room. If the school buses are late, we will delay theexamination for a short time – come straight down to the basement as soon as you arrive! Latearrivals will be dealt with on a case-by-case basis depending on the reason for the late arrival.• Afternoon examinations start at 13:15 – be in the basement are at 13:05 at the latest and waitquietly to be invited into the examination room. Do not be late! Late arrivals will be dealt with ona case-by-case basis depending on the reason for the late arrival.• Remember that some examinations continue after the end of school and you will need to arrangetransport home. You are advised to use the full time available for each examination - you maynot leave any examination in the first hour or the last 15 minutes.If you are unable to attend an examination due to illness, or are unavoidably delayed (e.g. dueto traffic problems) please call the school on 51 55 43 00 as soon as possible – by 08:30 at thelatest.The Informer 19 December, 2007· 7
