Ah, I'm sorry to hear that. I wonder if using headphones might help when
that happens, or just in general if there's background noise. I guess
you might have tried that and found it uncomfortable, which is fair enough.
I don't think headphones would help because I'm almost completely deaf in a
quiet room. Since the only extraneous noise would be from the headphones,
they might even make it worse. :-)
Ah okay, fair enough.
The only thing in particular I wanted to tell you was that I've done my
exam now, and it went well, so I should be able to get some more WMT
stuff done this week.
How do you think the exam went?
I think it went well. It was exceptionally difficult with 6 different
models to draw and complete (class diagrams, sequence diagrams, activity
diagrams etc). The models were also more complex than in the past
papers. As a result of the harder difficulty, I used all the time and
submitted 2 minutes before the late penalty time kicked in, which means
I was sat there for 3 hours 58 minutes doing the exam - not the most fun
I've ever had.
It was probably harder because due to COVID it was a remote open-book
exam instead of an in-person closed-book exam, so they adjusted the
difficulty up. It all went fine in the end though, I think. Thanks for
asking :)
