As the 2011/2012 end-of-session examination commences across the campuses of Lagos State University (LASU), Ojo, students of the institution are gripped with mixed feelings.

Speaking to Quadlife, Fola Sani, a student of Political Science said: “Well, firstly I commend the school authority for postponing the exam to this new date, because it allowed me prepare adequately for the exam. I am very optimistic that I will bag so many A’s in my courses when our results come out.”

For Kola Akinyode of Sociology Department, though the semester had been rough and tight, but she is optimistic of fruitful end-of-session exams. She said: “The semester has been okay; the time is favourable. Kudos must also be given to my lecturers who made good use of their time, to our advantage.”

On the contrary, Abisola Adedayo, a student of Business Education expressed dismay on the test she just wrote when Quadlife met with her. “I just had an impromptu test that I didn’t prepare adequately for. However, it’s just 30 marks and I hope to improve on my performance at the exams which has 70 marks,” enthused Adedayo in an optimistic voice.
