I suggest a replacement headline:
400 students cheated by school, pay tuition in order to sit in on 600-person classes and memorize hundreds of individual facts by rote, obtain increasingly worthless degrees.
(In all seriousness, this is cheating, but half of all students "study" like this all the way throughout high school and college, and most teachers couldn't give a shit, so I don't see why anyone is freaking out now.)

- DisposaBoy 16y agoThis assumes the students study only that material. There's nothing wrong with it. If your tutor tells you that these questions will either be on the test r similar to ones on the test then you'd be a fool to ignore it and try to study everything instead. Also, test scores rearely have any meaningful output with regards to how much most people actually know.
- reledi 16y agoSometimes the students have no choice when studying for tests. Most tests in school aren't testing your knowledge, but rather your ability to regurgitate the lecturer's notes.
