Describing how exams are set, how they are marked and how course work is assessed, this text also examines the fairness of modular exams and what happens when an appeal against a result is lodged. It demystifies the subject of exams, providing helpful examples and illustrative anecdotes. The author looks at some syllabi, comparing them with others, and asks whether exams are getting easier. He explains many oddities, such as how it can be a bad thing to be taught by the person who sets the exams, and how students may be awarded grades unjustly.
