Is it normal to take an exam with knowledge of whole 4 years?

In Turkey there's an exam called LYS for university. In this exam you are responsible for the topics that you've been learning for 4 years. IIN?

    We think the USA is better than Turkey on education. But I think we're mistaken according to your words.

    For Turkey? Yes, completely normal.

    Get ready to strap on a bomb and wade out into a crowded bazaar if you don't get good marks.

    Why not? Sounds like they really want to know whether you learned what you were supposed to or not. At least they care, unlike a certain country which uses the school system as a government run babysitting service for parents who couldn't give two shits how good an education their kids get.

        I think that there isn't anything wrong with that kind of test as long as they don't employ a system of learning that is anything like that of most western first world nations. That system is just a lot of rote memorization and regurgitation on command. Total waste of time and tax dollars.

          The USA has act/sat that's basically the same shit. It's used to filter out the retards with no future like you, so it's not surprising you haven't heard of it.

            It must be nice to see the world through rose colored glasses.
            The 'no child left behind' was the death knell for the American educational system. One you start teaching to the stupidest child in the class, you dumb down all the rest.
            Look it up online; where the Us educational system of the 60's ranked world wide and where the babysitting system of today ranks.
