Cussing like a commoner wasn't something I was tested on. I picked that habit up outside of high school.

The purpose of learning is not to give exams in class and forget about it, but to increase the knowledge until they possess an area of the earth for God almighty

I hate reading poems__chool made me hate them. I__ spend hours interpreting one, just to read the memorandum and realize I__ be fucked during exams. I remember making a little asterisk next to every question I struggled with, and at the end of the paper, I__ realize I was looking at the fucking Milky Way.

As cliché as it might sound, I'd rather lose than win by cheating. The latter is a much deeper, more personal loss in that one is admittedly whispering to himself his lack of competence. His cheating then begets more cheating, as he is ever-privately, ever-subconsciously insulting himself; thus, gradually deteriorating any remaining confidence.

My usual instruction to students when they are preparing to write their examinations is "think before you answer the questions". I am convinced that some multiple choice answers could be so close that you might not know the very one that answers the question correctly! Such is life. To choose your suitable dreams, you must think well!

Rincewind picked up a spare paper and read it.It was headed: Examination for the post of Assistant Night-Soil Operative for the District of W'ung.He read question one. It required candidates to write a sixteen-line poem on evening mist over the reed beds.Question two seemed to be about the use of metaphor in some book Rincewind had never heard of.Then there was a question about music . . .Rincewind turned the paper over a couple of times. There didn't seem to be any mention, anywhere, of words like 'compost' or 'bucket' or 'wheelbarrow'. But presumably all this produced a better class of person than the Ankh-Morpork system, which asked just one question: 'Got your own shovel, have you?

To be a good professional engineer,always start to study late for exams.Because it teaches you how tomanage time and tackle emergencies.

They say life is a test and this is a ridiculous idea! There is neither examination nor examinant! You encounter problems in life either because you are stupid or your path just crosses with the problems_ path by luck! Nobody is sending you problems to test you! Stay loose and chuck out the irrational idea of __est_ at once!

If you fail an examination, it means you have not yet master the subject. With diligent study and understanding, you will succeed in passing the exams.

The difference between a good and a poor student is result

Education is not merely meant for you to write and pass exams, get a good job and a good spouse, and settle down for survival.

If you hate to think, you are not different from some who is peeing on his academic certificates. The goal of education is to help you to think and lead.

Knowledge is a beautiful thing that can fill us with happiness. Let__ just think about our students who answered brilliantly to questions on various exams.

we exceeded expectations just by turning up for the exams." - George Weasly

To be better equipped for the tests that the year will bring _ read a textbook. To prepare for the tests that life will bring _ read a book.

When you do exams you never want to be the one who finishes first and you never want to be the one who finishes last.

Most of us are pseudo-scholars...for we are a very large and quite a powerful class, eminent in Church and State, we control the education of the Empire, we lend to the Press such distinction as it consents to receive, and we are a welcome asset at dinner-parties.Pseudo-scholarship is, on its good side, the homage paid by ignorance to learning. It also has an economic side, on which we need not be hard. Most of us must get a job before thirty, or sponge on our relatives, and many jobs can only be got by passing an exam. The pseudo-scholar often does well in examination (real scholars are not much good), and even when he fails he appreciates their inner majesty. They are gateways to employment, they have power to ban and bless. A paper on King Lear may lead somewhere, unlike the rather far-fetched play of the same name. It may be a stepping-stone to the Local Government Board. He does not often put it to himself openly and say, "That's the use of knowing things, they help you to get on." The economic pressure he feels is more often subconscious, and he goes to his exam, merely feeling that a paper on King Lear is a very tempestuous and terrible experience but an intensely real one. ...As long as learning is connected with earning, as long as certain jobs can only be reached through exams, so long must we take the examination system seriously. If another ladder to employment were contrived, much so-called education would disappear, and no one be a penny the stupider.

Feet away, Professor Dema stood, carrying a large gunlike weapon with both her hands and a snarl on her lips. This was not the way final exams were supposed to go.
