I thought I loved essay tests until I got into law school.
Tests there are half multiple choice (trust me, you can't bullshit your way through these), and half essay from hell. The answers are supposed to be massive and cover all sorts of information-- and this one four hour final is usually 100% of your grade.
Nothing to really sour you on education as a whole like really brutal tests that shore up all your weaknesses. I used to be good at essays, too.
Generally, I like take-home essays as tests. No tricks or arbitrary restrictions--it really seems the best way to gauge academic progress. But with law you have to remember the stuff, of course...

It's the 18th, (my final) and I went to school at 9 to get help from my teacher before my math exam. Not quite as screwed as I thought I was, possibly. I am currently waiting for the public library near the school to open so I can sit there and read a book or something. Unfourtunatly my account is frozen so I can't check anything out anyways.... Also I'm sick, and my chest really hurts when I cough.
I'm bored, I came way too early
