Thursday, September 18, 2008 @ 5:29 pm I hate when professors test you on minutia that you're to have memorized. My ideal test has no multiple choice (I HATE multiple choice tests because they're so high school), very little fill-in, and mostly short answer or essay questions because you can demonstrate your understanding of a topic rather than your ability to memorize things that were only grazed over in class (usually only the once). I don't think I bombed this test, but there were a few things that were sorta WTF?! I talked to some other grad students in the class and they were pretty pissed off, too. We came to a consensus that the things we concentrated on the most were concepts, processes, and reasoning behind them, and didn't concentrate so much on "ADH is another name for what hormone, and from which gland is it secreted?" Which is not to say knowing stuff like that isn't at all important, but if it's something you need to know for your own work, chances are you'll know it. Whereas the more generalized, big-picture stuff can be more readily cross-applied to a wide array of studies. I'm going to have to reformulate my study strategy for this class based on this unsavory experience. I am quite miffed. 1 Comments. I never thought that tests in college would be all that different than the ones in high school, besides difficulty level.... » randomjunk on 2008-09-18 11:34:13
