The Exam

I was attending a PGCE course about a month ago - trying to improve my teaching skills. However, as is often the case, my mind started wandering. My defence was that the spring board was something the lecturer said. He was describing the principles in the ideal exam - "the perfect exam should have clear criteria that the students know about, nothing else should be tested, it should be fair and take into account diversity of the student population". Criterion....furqan...And the perfect exam came to mind.
The rules are explicit and clearly set out for all to see. The Examiner is fair and diversity is always kept in mind.
