Yes!!!! If you have a teacher that reads the info you need to study for a test off of pages she printed off of Wikipedia. I barely feel like I am learning anything in this class, considering the test contain the question (what is (singer) known for, what are their dates, name five of their songs). The same question used four times on a test. Giving the students a week at least to study stuff like that may be ok, but giving about a dozen names on a monday and telling the students they need to study for a test the next day (wednesday) is not okay. Especially when there was a half- @ss review that monday, its time to break that "study sheet". .... Class evaluation sheets (DMX growl), somebody ain't getting a 5 out of 5.

Having gone through this all before I think a lot of the stuff is a waste of time. If the real purpose of school is to prepare you for the "real world" then it would have to follow a totally different model. In real life very rarely do you have to call to recollection any amount of information at the drop of a dime. There are no tests or pop quizzes at your job. In the real world if you need to know something you look it up on line and you can have notes, tutorials, ect to get you through. In the real world everyone cheats, but its not called cheating its called collaboration or "not reinventing the wheel" or benchmarking. It sucks, but you will get through it. Grad school is very different...lol
