Ah yes.. the 100wpm exam was a load of sausages..

Apologies for the delay in this week’s/last week’s blog – I was a little preoccupied trying to cram my brain with all the things I never understood about PA the first time round.

Also, the reporting exam was something else.. difficult isn’t the word!!

Fellow classmates have googled the stories involved – surgical equipment actually has been contaminated in the past.

Scandalous.

Fireworks disrupted a real funeral also.. only in Yorkshire!

Those taking the 100wpm exam were treated to ‘Brown’s Sausages sponsors football club’ I think, while for the 80wpm takers, it was a load of pyjamas.

It was about a local football team with no money who needed sponsoring.. much like my beloved Bury FC, who had been reported the day before as being a little bit skint last season.

I thought the exam went ok and hopefully I’ve passed, although you never know.

My hand actually started to shake at a few points in the exam but I was determined not to fall behind, not even by as much as a sausage (joke contributed by Natasha, the joke machine.) 

I now check the NCTJ website like a woman obsessed, but alas, no results yet.

It seems like every other centre in the country, maybe even the WORLD is online and yet we’re still waiting.

I’m considering taking the 110wpm on the 16th of December, my birthday, just for the hell of it. I’ve passed a few in class so what is there to lose?

Dignity? Senses? Sod it.

The 80wpm exam consisted of warnings against wearing pyjamas to the shops.. I can totally understand this crime wave - it has to be stopped now.

Good luck to everyone waiting for results.. hopefully it won’t be much longer now.

*gulp*
