When teachers walk around the room during tests!

Is it normal to HATE when teachers insist on walking around the room down the rows of desks when you're taking a test? its so distracting and annoying especially when they stop beside you and look over your shoulder. cant they just pick a spot in the room where they can see everybody and stay there?? can you relate students??

    Yes!! I completely understand this. It causes me so much distress and I end up focusing on little things like whether the answers on my test so far are correct (assuming the teacher is standing above me reading them), and also fixating my eyes on my paper to avoid being accused of cheating. It wastes precious time that I should be spending on answering other questions on my test! That being said, I know that the teacher is simply doing their job and don't blame them. It's really just my own test anxiety. Many teachers I've had do this, so its very normal and ubiquitously practiced.

    I had one teacher that would clip his nails during a test.
