Also -- I forgot to ask this earlier -- where in the world did you go to high school, Rudey, where most teachers used scantron tests?

I think I only took scantron tests in one subject ever and that was science. And even then the majority of the teachers included a written section. In math they always wanted to see your work in order to get full credit. I had one math teacher who literally went through every single problem on every single assignment for each student in her 3 calc and 3 geometry classes to make sure they showed every step. In English and the social sciences teststhere was always an essay portion, most of the time a substantial one. Every history class I ever took required at least one ten-page paper a semester. English and foreign language classes above second year always had essays; some of them required monthly or even short weekly essays. Even science classes required essays for honors credit, and even if you didn't do the essay there was lab work.

I can see how your view of teachers would be a little warped if you went to a high school where scantron tests made up the majority of the work you did . . .

Plus even the worst teachers at my school changed their curriculum from year to year. My little sister's taking many of the same classes that I did in high school and most of them have at least one unit that's drastically different from anything that I did.
