Is it correct?

I am finishing doing this exercise.

I would like to know if this sentence is correct. Does it sound weird? Is there a better way of saying it?

Thank you.

Two -ings in a row is usually avoided. I'd say, "I'm finishing this exercise". CJ

Thank you for your answers. This sentence appears in a multiple choice test, and it's not the choice to choose. I wanted to know if it is incorrect or simply a not very good way of saying it.
