However, if the majority of the class did poorly, the teacher's methods should be reviewed for effectiveness and the material revisited in smaller sections before the test is taken again.
Unfortunately we live in a world where schools are now factories mass producing a half baked education using the most useless of methods, and then people wonder why the young people of the world can't do anything for themselves.
They've been taught from day 1 not to.
Finally, somebody who agrees with my opinion on schools. Its all memorization, none of it is education. Instead of encouraging exploration and experimentation, and engagement, they encourage you to read something over and over and over again until you can drone it off at a moments notice, despite knowing next to nothing about the actual subject that said student is speaking about.
