Teacher’s Day. Some teachers gave their speeches. Our head prefect gave hers too. I asked Faten whether the students sat or stood up the whole time because I think I heard Wei Hung say that the students sat down and the prefects were scolded by Mr Fletcher?

Do students cram for your exams? More pointedly‚ in the bygone days when you were a student‚ did you ever cram for an exam? Maybe the answers depend on how cramming is defined. How about this definition from a 1968 study: cramming is “a period of neglect of study followed by a concentrated burst of studying immediately before an exam.” (Find this definition on p. 227 in the arti- cle referenced below.)
