Question: Why is it necessary to have finals? They stink so bad and they only make you stressed and they are always harD!

Answer: Final exams are used to determine your level of proficency on a given subject, what information you retain and in many cases, your ability to master a subject in a meaningful way. In other words, not just the ability to memeorize facts and figures, but take knowledge and apply it. \n\nYes, they can be difficult. But it seems to me that most kids today are more afraid to exercise their brains than they are to run their mouths....Gaining knowledge is it's own reward and better to learn now than when you're old an it's too late...
