Judging from the tired eyes and lamentations at school, many more hours were spent cramming for the tests. Registration for second semester classes happened on Monday, January 25. Students only had to pick up registration cards for classes lasting a semester or a quarter since they had registered for yearlong classes at the beginning of the year.
