I can definitely sympathize with Esther - our students (and teachers!) were also very frustated at the end of that very long Thursday. However, I think that there's a difference between a "hard" test (difficult, but fair) and a BAD test. This C was a BAD test, with poorly written, unfair questions, which were totally inappropriate for 3-4 pointers. Unfortunately, this is a story that repeats itself every year, just not always on the same module (anyone remember Manuka Honey?). Can anyone tell me why they don't have TEACHERS, who actually prepared students of their own for the bagrut for _ years in the past, write the Bagrut?
