On the eve of Students’ Day, the most beautiful and ambitious girls from the Ural universities recalled funny stories from exams for Woman`s Day, and also told how to please even the most strict teacher.

Once on the exam … In the second year I had a difficult exam: a lot of tickets and a teacher – a beast. I decided to go to the exam with spurs. There is only one problem – I do not know how to cheat at all! And at the exam I simply could not get the necessary piece of paper, because it turned out to be too large. And in front of me they managed to copy everything, their answers are so good, but the teacher of students still brings down questions. And I have my own answers to tickets, but clumsy … I think – that’s it, I’ll fill it up. But the teacher realized that I did not write off, offered to answer one additional question in order to get a credit. Asks – I cannot answer. The second asks, the third … In general, he asked me questions until I answered. He was about sixth … That’s how sometimes honesty is rewarded.
What goes to the institute. Hmm, I generally prefer the grunge style, which is understandable, because I sing in the grunge band Who Cares About. But at university, I believe there is no place for short leather shorts, stockings and frayed T-shirts. Therefore, for an educational look, I try to combine grunge with classics and other styles: you put on jeans with a high waist, tuck in your favorite T-shirt of incomprehensible texture, a jacket on top and – voila! You are no longer a rock star, but a diligent student.
Which teacher is stricter – a woman or a man? I personally have not come across gender stereotypes among teachers. But both men and women teachers sometimes have a malicious stereotype: if a girl is beautiful, then most likely she is stupid. Therefore, my task is to establish myself as a hardworking and intelligent person. The main thing that needs to be done to please any teacher is to be interested in his subject, to be included in the work.

Once on the exam … I received an “automatic” test from a teacher who never puts them. But I found out about it at the exam itself, when I was already ready to write the answer. The teacher said: “Why did you come? I gave you five a week ago. ”
What goes to the institute. I often choose basic plain dresses – they are comfortable and look feminine. Complementing the image with various bags, scarves and jewelry, you can add something new every time. But I will definitely never wear sportswear to the university – I think that its use is limited to the gym and, perhaps, to a country vacation, and the rest of the time the girl should remain gentle.
Which teacher is stricter – a woman or a man? I have great respect for all teachers, perhaps because I myself grew up in a family of teachers. The main thing is to find in each discipline what interests you. If the teacher sees that you are involved, there should be no problems.

Once on the exam … At school I did not study very well – I was not interested. I didn’t do my homework, didn’t listen to the teachers, sometimes I even quarreled with them. But I knew what I needed for admission, and worked specifically on this. I passed all entrance exams well, with the Unified State Exam I was worse. As a result, I lacked one point before free education, but I tried to study well, and in the 3rd year I was transferred to the budget.
What goes to the institute. I prefer black, I love dresses very much. Favorite – a simple, black, straight, floor-length dress with long sleeves, with a collar like a turtleneck. Very simple, closed. I believe that things should not be pretentious, they should emphasize all the virtues, and the “highlight” is the person himself. I really do not like it when I see things with a bunch of details that are not needed there at all.
Which teacher is stricter – a woman or a man? Loyalty does not depend on the gender of the teacher. All people can cause both dislike and good feelings. At school, teachers build their attitudes based on how you look and how you behave. In college, on the other hand, teachers often judge you by how you study. If they see you trying hard and respecting their subject, they don’t care if you have piercings or tattoos.
I have “tunnels” in my ears by 18 mm, a septum is punctured (a puncture of the cartilage in the nose. – Approx. Woman`s Day) and a tattoo is even in prominent places, which does not prevent the teachers from meeting me halfway. Once I prepared poorly for art history, and on the exam I answered mediocre. Everyone considers this teacher to be very strict, but she turned out to be very understanding. I explained that I was the main candidate for the transition to the budget, and she allowed me to retake the exam. It was thanks to that assessment that I was transferred to the budget. It doesn’t matter whether a man or a woman teaches, the important thing is that a person always remains a person.

Once on the exam … In the first year, on an important test, the teacher tried to “overwhelm” me with the last difficult question. Unfortunately, I did not remember the answer. A classmate who was sitting next to me helped me, she opened the notebook to the right page. I always write cheat sheets, but they are not useful to me: while you write them, everything is remembered by itself. The jokes of the teachers are also remembered. They can help you remember something.
What goes to the institute. My wardrobe includes classic dresses, skirts. I heard that, for example, short skirts and jeans are prohibited in the Ural State Law University. And I can safely wear them. But I will never wear something pretentious, disco. And since I myself work in my free time in the style studio, I can easily pick up a bow for myself.
Which teacher is stricter – a woman or a man? I have met strict men and women. Any teacher can only like his interest in his subject, you need to conduct more personal conversations and ask questions about the topic. It is worth starting from the person’s personal preferences: someone liked gifts in honor of a holiday or the end of the semester, someone was happy with simple thanks in words.
Student life is the most fun time. In addition to my studies, I manage to participate in drummer shows, work in a style studio and collaborate with a modeling agency.

Once on the exam … Almost all teachers at the Faculty of Journalism are relaxed and have a good sense of humor. For example, when a student was late for a lecture, the teacher conducted a quick vote among the students: who was “for” and who was “against”, so that the latecomer would come. Sometimes prizes are awarded for the best work – lollipops, mugs, books and even chak-chak! Once the teacher asked a question for an extra point, but only the one who came … in green clothes could answer it. So I got the point not only thanks to my knowledge, but also to the green sweater!
What goes to the institute. I never bother about what to wear to the university – the main thing is to look neat and decent. It is unacceptable to come to school in a tracksuit. If you do not want to “steam” with the selection of clothes, it is better to choose jeans and a T-shirt.
Which teacher is stricter – a woman or a man? In my experience, women are very fond of asking additional questions, sometimes not even on a ticket, in order to fully convince themselves of your knowledge. They are constantly looking for a catch. Male teachers, having heard the correct answer, immediately give a grade. But the approach to passing the exam is the same for both teachers: good preparation and convincing answers.

Once on the exam … It happens that you learn just one ticket – and you come across it on the exam. But this is not about me. It’s different for me: you don’t learn just one ticket, and you’ll get it. But even in this case, I passed the exam perfectly, because the topic was discussed at the lecture, and I managed to remember something.
I also learned one lesson: it’s better not to be late for classes. Once I was 15 minutes late, knocked on the classroom, opened the door, and before I could say a word, the teacher kicked me out the door. This has never happened to me before.
What goes to the institute. I prefer casual clothes or classics: jeans and a blouse. I do light styling and natural makeup. The appearance of some students is sometimes surprising: for example, short shorts and tank tops with a low cut in the summer. This is not entirely suitable for an educational institution.
Which teacher is stricter – a woman or a man? There are more strict or demanding teachers among both women and men. How to please a teacher? Before, I would have answered that a smile can endear a person. But one day during the exam, I sat down in front of the teacher and, before pulling the ticket, I greeted and smiled. To which I heard: “Why are you smiling? Initially I don’t like you. ” Therefore, now I will answer that, probably, any teacher will appreciate your knowledge and interest in the subject.

Once on the exam … There was a case at a colloquium on computer science. It all started late. My minibus was in such a hurry that it crashed slightly. Well, of course, I was late, and even came to the wrong audience, waited 30 minutes, only then I realized that I was in the wrong place. With grief in half I got to this colloquium. And the subject is complex. Therefore, I previously wrote a bunch of cheat sheets. We drew out the tickets, and then I realized that I did not remember this particular ticket, but the other way around from my friend. Without thinking twice, we decided to exchange tickets. But the teacher noticed. He came up and said that he would deduct 25 points from each for the fact that we exchanged tickets. As a result, he gave me 10 points out of 50 … During the exam session I came with flowers and the teacher decided that it was for him. Says: “Likhareva, have you decided to bribe me?” And I just left the metro in the morning, there was my grandmother, whom I felt sorry for, and I bought flowers from her. During the exam, I came across a question about the system block diagram. Since we were sitting in a computer lab, I was able to go online and check my answer. It turned out to be correct, and in the end I passed perfectly!
What goes to the institute. Since I wore a uniform at the Lyceum, I got used to a more strict style of dress. My favorite uni clothes are shirts, blouses and jeans. I never wear sportswear: T-shirts, leggings or sweatpants, sweatshirts – in general, jersey. In my opinion, clothes should be comfortable, but stylish at the same time.
Which teacher is stricter – a woman or a man? There is one simple rule: there is no need to argue with a male teacher – he is right! Do not contradict him and prove your point of view (many students love this). With a female teacher, everything is simple: visit all the couples, submit assignments on time – they love responsibility, diligence and the ability to defend their position.
We also had a male teacher who did not like beautiful girls and underestimated their grades. Many teachers are actually prejudiced against the beautiful, thinking that they are necessarily stupid.

Once on the exam … The story is not about me, but funny. One young man had a strained relationship with a teacher. One day he decided to contact him through the VKontakte website to arrange a retake of the job. And, I must say, the teacher has a specific manner of communicating with students – a sharp one. Having received a letter with barbs in response, the guy forwarded it to a friend with his unflattering comments. But I sent this message back to the teacher by mistake! In response, the professor threatened to retake the exam for life. However, everything ended well.
What goes to the institute. I always try to look nice and well-groomed, but I never draw attention to myself with a specific or provocative wardrobe. The main thing is convenience, comfort, and in our cold winters it is also warm. The only thing I can never refuse is high heels. However, I will never wear a skirt that is too short or a dress with a deep neckline, because it will be uncomfortable for me.
Which teacher is stricter – a woman or a man? From the first days at the university it seemed to me that it was easier to establish contact with a male teacher, although I never had conflicts with anyone. I do not think that a teacher should necessarily be liked, because the main thing is to gain knowledge. In order not to compromise yourself, you need to remain kind, responsive and respect the teacher.

Once on the exam … Once my friend was very unlucky. He learned 74 out of 75 tickets for the exam. And it was the only unfortunate ticket that he got. And I know how to enjoy life both in exams and in lectures, no matter what. At the most intense exams I will find positive aspects, and at the most boring lectures I will find something to do with myself.
What goes to the institute. It depends on what time I wake up for couples. Because getting up early for me is a real tragedy and torment. I usually wear jeans because they are more comfortable, and you still don’t have to worry that you will tear the nylon tights on the hooks on the chairs (laughs). But if I overslept, I put on the most comfortable clothes in the world – sportswear.
Which teacher is stricter – a woman or a man? Teacher loyalty does not depend on gender. I have met different teachers. To please a teacher, you need, at least, respectfully and adequately communicate with him. I think every teacher needs a special approach.

Once on the exam … I remember the very first exam – it was world history. And history, so to speak, is not my strong point. Despite this, I was not discouraged and prepared. But my calmness vanished as I approached the audience. I walk in, draw out the ticket with a shaking hand and exhale with relief – I know the answer! I begin to tell, I see that they nod in response to me. And suddenly … the nods disappeared, and a condemning look appeared. I began to stutter, fiddle with my hair, bite my lips … Then everything was like a fog. They silently wrote something to me in the student’s book, and I left the audience, thinking that it was a complete failure. But I saw the mark “good” in the record-book! Since then, I think that exams should not be taken too seriously.
What goes to the institute. I do not adhere to a certain dress code, I dress according to my mood, and now also according to the weather. One thing I can say for sure, when I 100% like my appearance, then a charge of vivacity and good mood for the whole day is provided.
Which teacher is stricter – a woman or a man? There is no gender dependence of the teacher. A teacher is first of all a person, and then a man or a woman. And so that there are no problems, you need to attend lectures, do your homework, and also, if possible, not get into heated arguments. And to be liked, you need to smile, be brave and ask questions.

Once on the exam … At one of the seminars on probability theory, we discussed various stories from the life of the teacher and each student. At the end of the discussion, everyone came to the conclusion that it is enough for the female sex to have the ability to smile beautifully!
What goes to the institute. I take my studies seriously, so I prefer the formal style: I love shirts, trousers and skirts with a modern cut. I consider it unacceptable to go to university in ripped jeans and any frankly transparent things.
Which teacher is stricter – a woman or a man? Gender is not so important as experience and knowledge. How many teachers, so many approaches to teaching students.

Once on the exam … At our university, funny stories rarely occur during exams, because the exam at USLU is always a serious preparation, and the procedure itself rarely causes laughter. But a “satisfactory” grade on one of the exams could radically change my life … This is an exam in logic. During the whole semester, I did not study very well: this is logic, and I am a blonde. I needed a “four”, for this I had to successfully write the test part and answer orally. I didn’t write the test very well, although I had learned the whole logic course for the exam. The teacher says: “There is no point in going to the oral part, I give you a“ three ”. But I said that I would definitely go. And he replied that no one had yet received the required number of points on the oral part. And what do you think? On the oral part, I came across a very difficult problem that no one had been able to solve before me, and I deservedly received the missing number of points and “good”. This estimate allowed me to go on a budget!
What goes to the institute. There is no strict dress code at our university, but everyone is trying to look appropriate for the future profession of a lawyer. Usually for classes I dress as discreetly as possible, I prefer dark colors in clothes. Basically it is a pencil skirt, jackets and various shirts. Even in the most urgent situation, I will not allow myself to come to the university in sportswear or in very open clothes, for example, with a neckline.
Which teacher is stricter – a woman or a man? In my opinion, the loyalty of a particular teacher does not depend on gender, but on character, attitude to his profession, and, of course, to the student himself! If you have messed up, do not be surprised at the misunderstanding between you. And, of course, you should understand that everyone is in a bad mood!

Once on the exam … I am a purposeful and responsible person. I enjoy learning and facing difficulties and overcoming them. And I always prepare for exams in good faith, so there were no incidents. A memorable incident happened during the exam with my classmate. We once wrote a test. Like all students, they hid their cribs and phones. There is deathly silence and suddenly the whole audience – the voice of Siri (electronic assistant on iPhones. – Approx. Woman`s Day): “Sorry, I did not understand your question, please repeat.” Everyone was laughing, especially the teacher. He made a subtle joke on this topic and calmly continued the exam.
What goes to the institute. It takes 1,5 hours to get to university from out of town, so I always get up long before my classmates wake up. I’m used to being natural: at school I have a minimum of makeup, or none at all. I also dress simply, but tastefully. I think that any student should look neat and always smell good.
Which teacher is stricter – a woman or a man? The severity of the teacher does not depend on gender. I believe that any teacher loves responsible students who submit all work on time and are always ready to answer questions. You need to be sociable and find an approach even to the most harmful teacher.
