Exams

Exams around the corner, literally next week!!!!

Grrr...

Well I've been hard at work preparing for these exams, don't want to fail!

I've come to hate exams over the years that I've been taking them, I mean aren't exams the lazy mans way of assessing? Surely a true representation of a students understanding of something can't come from two hours of hell. Can the letter your given really show someone how well you understand a particular subject?

I think that if exams are going to be given they should all be open book, I mean we don't actually need to remember this stuff when we're out in industry do we? If we don't know something, then surely we just go and look it up in a text book or on the internet? Wouldn't this type of exam show that we are capable of conducting research to get to the correct answer? Then wouldn't this would prove a more valuable demonstration of skill than basic memory recall?

If I was an employer I know what type of exam I would prefer to see on someone's cv


Let me know what you think...

My blog

Here it is...

The final step in my dream, actually owning a blog...

I wasn't sure what I could blog about, so I decided that I would write about my life as an Engineering Student! Yeah some of you readers won't be interested, but I don't care...
