It always bugged me; the people who would do their homework and get great marks, then next year when the prof asks us to recall stuff from last year all the A students look like deer in headlights; but the B students can rattle off stuff.
I would have laughed if it wasn't so stupid- when I was in high school we had final exams worth 40% of your mark. The stopped them just after I left because the A students were failing them. Rather than getting to the cause of why students were doing poor; let's get rid of those tests that bring this issue to light.
