Interesting post to me, as it touches on both my current job (human services and second chances) and where I'll be this time next year (taking college courses). I appreciate many of your posts as they show, I think, that you don't just take things at face value. You process and analyze and work to refine your view of life.

This sounds like a good post about how students and teachers try to learn something and do well for themselves, despite the way the system is set up to actively discourage learning and to keep people who can't afford to spend lots of money away from making careers and jobs for themselves. I don't know if that was an intended subtext, but it certainly sounds like a great example of "education system needs overhaul."
I was raised a secular homeschooler, so pretty much every time I talk about schools,there's a subtext of "education system needs overhaul" whether I'm consciously thinking it or not. I don't usually go as far as you describe with my critique of the educational system. My critique is usually more along the John Gatto line of thinking: the system is currently geared to produce workers and consumers instead of citizens.
Interesting stuff. I am familiar with the sorts of tests you mentioned, and as hard as they are, I really value the layered problems of high-level physics tests. Unfortunately, better tests come at some expense in time or money, which is why the smaller, upper-level classes will have the better tests. On the level of undergraduate education or certification exams, better tests will require more money from you, another blow to the ambitious but often poor community college students
