Open Book Tests
How true. Almost all test focus on memorization skills, rather than learning the actual material. Who will remember pointless science terms and extremely long math problems, if they go into business, or construction? I know I won’t. And I also hate it when teachers think you are irresponsible if you don’t know a certain material. And worst of all, us as kids can’t do anything about it!
