COACH'S ROWING HUMOR: TOP TEN EXAM TIPS FOR ROWERS...
 
Updated January 16, 2011

1. In class, position your coach over your shoulder to correct any mistakes.

2. Tell your teacher you only got through one paragraph of your final paper and then you caught a crab.

3. Every time you get stuck on a hard problem, sit upright and yell: "In two, I'm taking a ten to send Pine Richland away."

4. Bring a water bottle with you (which in a pinch can serve another purpose in case your teacher doesn't allow bathroom breaks.)

5. Have a coxswain there to let you know how you're doing compared to everyone else--e.g: "she just broke her pencil, here's where you make your move!"

6. Bring a pitch meter, clams, and a 7/16 wrench with you in the exam--the pitch meter to arrange your desk for optimal angle; the clams for your pencil so as the questions increase in difficulty you can "lighten the load"; and the 7/16 for... well... it's just a good idea no matter where you go.

7. If you need some more time to cram before the exam, just raise your hand to let your teacher know that you are not aligned.

8. Explain to the Principal that it's not cheating to let your bowman with the 4.0 take a test for you since he is just an extension of you.

9. After the test, raise your hand and protest that Malvern Prep came over into your lane.

10. Treat the exam like a 2K; do only 3/4 of the first question, 1/2 of the second, and 3/4 of the third and fourth. Then, settle down to your regular pace until the last 5 questions which you do in 1:20.
