Topic #1: Exams - Jack :]

So this is the first topical blog post apart from the topic of introducing the blog, if you'd even consider that a topic?
So, EXAMS :| The joy of my life -sarcasm
I understand what they're for, and why we 'need' them for grading and things, but do we really need them? Our books, they have work that's level marked, the teachers assess us, but yet we still have to do exams?
I know some people work better under exam conditions because they aren't distracted, but shouldn't homework be like that then?
Two more things,
Why put a time limit on tests and exams, it's our knowledge, we just might not have enough time to put down all our thoughts onto paper, I always find this is the case and then end up putting the shortest crappy answer instead of the best answer I could give, so I lose marks for something I could've done.
Last thing, relevant to my school, our exams started today. Why give us exams the day after half term when everyone is tired and has got up late.

Okay I lied, one more thing,
Exam Papers = Paper
Paper = Tree
Tree = Environment
That is all.
