[QUOTE="Sue C, post: 17527, member: 87"] Well, almost all of Melissa's tests the 2-1/2 years she was at college were open book or open note tests. She said her professors told them there is no way you can memorize everything and that even if you do, you forget it anyway. They said you need to be able to learn where to look for answers. That is certainly not the way tests were done when I went to school, but I'm thinking it's become the norm. Oh--one professor even gave them 3 "tries" to pass for each online quiz they gave them. Give me a break. p.s. I had one teacher when I went to technical college that gave open book/open note exams. I got the highest grades in the class. I'm not bragging; I want to explain my "system." On a sheet of paper I wrote down key words/ideas from the chapters in alphabetical order and put the page # next to the word so I could look up the answers FAST. Lots of work but it paid off.
