University students in exams bunching protest

STUDENTS from a leading Scottish university are protesting over their exam timetable arguing it causes stress and can lead to them getting worse results.

The group of more than 1000 students from Strathclyde University, in Glasgow, are calling for the institution to space exams out rather than having them on the same or consecutive days.

The University of Strathclyde Students' Association (USSA), which is leading the protest, will hand over a petition calling for change to the university's vice- principal, Professor Kenneth Miller, later this week.
