This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Probably. We have a system where you only need to write your student id number but often people also write their names since it makes kt easier to find your exam when going to see what you did right and wrong.

Sorry but this seems almost archaic to me. When I was a student we were assigned a number by the exam office that we wrote on our exams, then after the exams were corrected the exam office would send us back our result. It was quite simply putting in a middle-man that did the student <-> number mapping so that the people correcting the exams never saw any names.

Here, students can also view their graded exams online. There are some professors that don't do it out of fear of the exams questions being leaked. In that case, you'd go there in person, but you would definitely not be able to just go through the exams on your own until you find the right one. That would never pass data protection laws.

We only have in person reviews. You go there and the professor goes through calling out the numbers/names if you wrote yours and hands them out for you to check.

I mean by find your exam I meant the professor or whoever is taking care of it going through them and finding your name instead of calling out every number.
