 Re: Are examinations a true test of knowledge?
 Quote:
Quote sunhelen  My father's university required students to demonstrate knowledge of second language to get their degree. One of his classmates was French. He tutored several students for the French test, and they all passed. He took the same test and failed. After the test the French student and professor administering the test got into a big argument IN FRENCH. None of the students who had just passed a test of French competence understood a single thing that they were saying. | That story is hilarious! I have met a couple of teachers like that. |
