I finished my exams last saturday so no more revision for me for a while.
I totally agree with your point. Exams are pointless because they don't reflect real situations. My friend just finished his law degree. He had to remember dozens of cases off by heart to reference in the exam. They all had long stupid names often foreign names which are hard to spell. A lawyer could look up these cases and write down notes to take into court but students are expected to have a brilliant memory.
