Higher exam time for the students of UCC

The Issue

As you all know, during exams, we are given two hours to finish the exams. In most courses, Like Financial Accounting and Micro Economics, the time limit given to do the exam is not enough to finish or at least do the exam and feel confident that you passed even though you are not finished. The students have been asking for a change since last year, and changes have not been made. This time limit has caused us to fail exams which results in us paying a fee of $30,000 to do over the entire course, which is absolutely absurd to the students of UCC.

Example: In the recent microeconomics exam, students were unable to finish their exams due to the short time and long exam, which consisted of 4 questions separated into 5 or more parts which also included working out, which requires time to finish. This resulted in most persons failing the exam, which would have been prevented if we were given more time to do the exam. 

This petition is to bring justice to the leaders of the future; The students of UCC. We hope that this petition gives the directors of UCC an insight into how many students agree that the time limit given to us students is unfair, and we hope that this will change for summer 2021.

In life, change is inevitable. In education, change is vital.
