[QUOTE="forensicbuzz, post: 404085, member: 198"] The tests were not reasonable. Most Tech students understood the concepts taught and were learning the 80% of the topic, as intended. However, most of the examinations pushed well into that 20% that is not taught in class and are the hardest of the hard homework questions. Where a reasonable professor would add one or two of these questions to an exam to challenge the student (with full expectation that the question would not be answered correctly by the vast majority of the class), some of these professors wrote the whole test that way. A couple of examples when I was there...Dr. Desai (aka Dr. Death), Dr. Wempner , Dr. Ung. Also, the Physics sequences had a quiz every Friday. These were 5 questions, and was multiple choice. The potential answers were derived by common errors, so you could work every problem and your answer match one of the options and miss every question. [/QUOTE]
