Exams?

The exams put (I think) an unnecessary amount of stress on students. I get the point of testing what you really know, but it is only to be expected that even the most well-prepared of us can feel like we won't make it. When you feel nervous as you approach a test or exam, is it because you don't think you know it well or because you don't think you know the test well? There's a difference after all.

I sympathize with people who have to set up tests and exams. It is next to impossible to gauge the result of a person's entire education based on questions on pieces of paper. Hoom.
