Because it wasn't fair. The computers were supposed to let us go back and recheck answers, compare questions, et al. Instead, mine kept freezing up.

If I fail a test and it is my fault, I will totally accept responsibility and work damn hard so the next time I won't. However, when circumstances and errors on the part of others contribute to a bad grade, I will fight for whatever solution I consider fair.
