(it lays the foundation in developing good algorithms, modernizing old building, planning assaults) the true purpose behind exams is to avoid getting caught when you are attending one..not scoring the best point. if you are really that good, you can be secret agent for your country. thats why those who cheat on exams always have the coolest, Neo looks while top students will eventually work as priests, preacher or in a lab playing with mice and figuring out the history of the purple dinosaur.
