So I go to write a quiz this morning in class, and our instructor has set a 10 minute time limit on the thing (online). It's on the OSPF chapter of the cisco CCNP material.

Last week the quiz on EIGRP was a joke and I finished it in 6 minutes. It was predominantly simple answers that you could easily answer if you knew anything about EIGRP.

This week he expects us to do a bunch of subnet calculations for convoluted summary questions involving diagrams with multi-area OSPF nertworks, do two "read config > find the problem" questions, and then match the LSA types to the types of routers that will send them. Plus a couple other simple questions afterwards. WITH THE SAME TIME LIMIT AS THE LAST QUIZ.

So I start writing and then fucking windows update starts telling me I need to restart, I get 3 text messages, making my phone vibrate on the table making a shitload of noise, AND I get a little mixed up on the first couple questions. I get 2/3 through the quiz and then the fucking thing locks me out. Very much to my dismay, the last 30% of the quiz is worth 60% of the marks...

60 seconds would have made the difference between 90% and 30%.

Fuck. Gotta love when you know the material and still get raped on the fucking quiz.

That's a bunch of bullshit. Sorry to hear that, man. =(

Is there no way to explain the situation to your instructor and ask for an extension?
The room is ripe with the stench of bitches!

He actually asked me what happened since he knows I'm rocking a 4.0 and am a week ahead in the lab material, I explained, but he didn't seem to care. It's not worth a massive amount (not really worth making a big stink about). I'm just pissed off about it that is all. Next time I will make sure I am distraction free and focused before I start. I kinda went in assuming it would be joke easy since I know the overwhelming majority of the material.

Just needed to vent my anger.

OP, are you studying network engineering or something like that? Or are you studying for CCNP certificate. I'll study for CCNA starting from 5th of October or something like that.

if you finished the last one in 6 mins, why didn't you do that this time too? then you would have 4 extra minutes to read your text messages and restart your computer. is it because you were confused at the start of the test?
