Is it correct to say
"Now that the exams are over with, we can go out"
Why leave the "with"? I've heard it before but not sure.

Thank you CSnyder.
Could you if you have a sec, tell me if you are ok with the other corrections, as I don't know why it wouldn't be "under shoes" etc...
thank you so much

Any corrections I didn't comment on are ones I generally agree with. Mud gets stuck on your shoes, even if it's stuck on the soles of your shoes (i.e. under them). I can't really tell you why.
