Burned

I just finished the test of the building construction class. I did a horrible job on the test. It's not because I didn't study for it, actually I reviewed everything in the textbook for many time during the past few days. Yet, I have to say, I'm definitely "burned" by this exam.

If I can give a grade to the exam paper composer, he would receive a D-. Me and my studio classmates all agree that this is the most stupid exam we've ever seen. First of all, there're tons of mistakes and typos in it. Then, most of the questions are senseless. For example, "explain the meaning of each number and alphabet in 'W30-112' steel beam. Now, would you please take out an architecture handbook (any handbook) and look closely on the up right-hand-side conner of any structural steel chart. It'll tell you what those numbers stand for. We're not contractors! Errrr! There're things in the textbook that are more important than how to read a beam size or how iron is made. Where's the steel joint type and technique? Where's the steel structure layout? How about concrete building process and formwork? Where're the 'real' construction questions?

Anyways, I absolutely hate this exam and this class. Oh, and did I tell you how I feel about the exam? I HATE it!
