ARE Exam not so bad, new dinosaurs

Friday, June 15th, 2007

I felt pretty confident after my exam. Taking the exam was a little unnerving, since they do everything short of a full body cavity search to make sure nobody is able to cheat. I had to put everything from my pockets, my watch, my calculator etc into a locker before I could enter the exam room. They have a big jar of hard candy on the desk, but if you take a piece you have to throw the wrapper out before entering the exam room. At least they don’t try to feed you the candy.

Following the exam, I was excited to see that a new dinosaur that looks like a strange overgrown bird was discovered in China recently. I think it looks a little bit like they assembled two other dinosaurs incorrectly, but perhaps after the escape with the “Brontosaurus” scientists are more careful.
