Since we're talking about exams right now, i'll take the opportunity to mention how much they freaking suck!!! i mean come on, could anyone ever think of a worse way to test for intelligence? They just make you sit there for hours and hours and memorize facts so that you can perform like a dog at a dog show for them on exam day. It doesn't actually mean that you know ANYTHING!!! All you have done is bought into their system of reading over things 100 times until it gets drilled into your brains. Like advertisements and social norms. You keep hearing that you need to have this certain type of clothes, or look this certain way, and you will be happy. As an outsider looking in, you would think "wow, that is fucking stupid", but after being told 800 times every day, it gets engrained into your consciousness, and you start to believe it.
Getting back to exams though, couldn't they come up with something that REALLY shows how intelligent people are, instead of just turning them into mindless drones who are well-suited to join the corporate machine????
I hate society and its goddamn drones.
