I don’t get it. If you are only getting 8 out of 20 correct; then

1. the professor is not teaching the material or doing a terrible job of teaching the material;

2. the professor is not testing the material that he/she taught; or
3; the professor created a terrible testing instrument that does not differentiate the good students from the poor students (with only 8 questions expected to be answered correctly, how can you differentiate)

I thought professors were suppose to engage & teach students and tests were suppose to test in a fair manner the material which was taught
