Unironically, that should be cheating. Tests should measure your mastery over the subject of the class, passing the test shouldn't be the goal

It's societal collapse type shit

I am failing the test on the subject of this comment for sure.

  • Learning is cheating
  • The test should measure everything you can learn
  • Passing the test shouldn't matter
  • Society is collapsing because people are passing tests

I'm saying the objective (teaching/learning/understanding) has been confused for the metric (test results)

It's endemic. Nothing else in life works like this. Even now, someone is probably reading this like I'm some midwit thinking "well, how do you rank the students, smart ass?". And that's a fucking problem
