							| Could anybody explain, please? 
 |  
							| Dear Colleagues,   Could anybody tell me which phrase to use for the following sentences? Is it  �in the end � or  �at the end �?   1.   The day before yesterday, I sat an examination. I knew nothing about the subject. ______________ I returned a blank paper and left.   2.   I would have liked to include thirteenth sentences for this exercise but I had no more idea after the twelfth sentence. ______________  I gave up and stopped here, at sentence number twelve.   Help me please...   Thanks in advance!     Hugs,   jocel |  4 Oct 2011

							| I think "in the end" is the correct option in both cases as in both cases the meaning is "finally". 
 Hope this link will make the difference clear for you.
