Examination is actually the spoiler and vibe killer in schools. But, no one can actually progress in school without writing exams.

A lot of desperation and seriousness comes with examinations. Students try to avoid carry-overs while others aim at making the highest grades possible.

I was in the examination hall one certain day. In the middle of the exam, I just went blank. I wasted more than four minutes trying to write severe.
To make matters worse, the guy sitting to my right was our pastor and no matter the situation, he won't reply you during examination.
He later came and met me after the exam to apologize.

It was in 2008 during first semester 400Level exams in uni that I forgot how to spell the word technology, lol and behold a school bus passed with our school name on it, Federal University of Technology. I felt it would be wrong, so I changed the word for a synonym.
I remember today and smile. Thank GOD for the journey this far.

Mine was during junior waec, I forget the spelling of the word YOU. I thought about it for some minutes then wrote out the spellings that came to my head: yuo, oyu, ouy plus the correct spelling you bt they were not making sense to me so I had no choice bt to tell my neighbor to help me out wt the correct spelling.

'Being' is present continuous while 'been' is past.

you are supposed to use "been" in this instance. While "being"shows a state being or existence. E.g I was being candid but he got upset. (Use been when referring to past state)

I told a corps member this story in the office today.
During one of my GCEs, I couldn't remember the spelling of drown. I had to opt for its close relation sink, which wasn't apt for an animate entity.

Also, I forgot the spelling of egg in one of my exams. I kept on writing ege (cassava in Yoruba), and deep down within me, I knew it wasn't correct despite having three letters!

Na short time memory loss! Exam tension dey show person sege!
afi ege naan,no kee me,oya getat.

Mine was "OUR"... It was in an essay writing back then in secondary school.... I was there for more than 10minutes... I kept writing rubbish. Awa, hawa, and so on.... I had to call on the teacher supervising to help me out, because we weren't allowed to talk to other students during exams. The teacher laughed at me though, but she later helped me out... That, and so was "YOU"
