It's not an awesome story.
So I have a 1 credit periodontology class and after the midterm a couple months ago we got a new professor. He told us the second day he taught that he would try something different this year and have us submit questions that would appear on the final. Our class president divided the class into groups and each group submitted 12 questions, 6 of which would show up on the final. Basically, we could just study this battery of questions and not have to read the book or the tedious handouts. This was the big implication. Well the course DIRECTOR made an appearance after 6.6 weeks and informed us that our professor never told him about this "arrangement" regarding the final and that he would not allow it to happen. He announced he would write the exam himself and not use a single question we submitted. So that left most of us with 3 days to study material that cannot be studied in three days. The course director announced his decision via email friday night. The test is on tuesday and I have been working on it all day. I barely made a dent. I understand the course director's point and I would have willingly studied the material in advance had he told us sooner. No one had any idea that our current professor didn't run the plan by the course director. In summation, fuck.
