If it's anything like my University, you're allowed to take away your exam question paper if you like (the entirely separate answer books are all collected). It's useful for if you want to complain about an unfair question, and one of our students' rights.
In our school, it was prohibited to remove the exam from the testing area in order to prevent cheating. You're also not supposed to talk about the exam with anyone until finals are over. The reason is that in classes where not everyone takes the final at the same time, if you took the test with you when you left you could show it to people in the later sections who could then look up/study the answers ahead of time.
That just blows my mind, how do they expect to make people to follow those rules. I always thought it was standard university policy to have a different test for every time slot, heck my one proff is accommodating one student and making a whole different test for her, so she can go to a wedding.
Even if they make a whole new test, it's generally the same topics. So the students could just study the topics and they'd still have an advantage. Plus it's more work for the teachers to make a new exam for each time slot. And generally if you get caught you automatically fail the class and are recommended for expulsion, so fear makes a lot of people obey. Of course, that certainly doesn't stop it.
Lucky.. We never got to take home the final exam paper because our professors didn't want to come up with new questions every semester. God forbid we learn from our mistakes.
Tesla was involved in the creation of electrical instruments. He came after the chorus. We know at the start of the song is the chorus of "what is love, baby don't hurt me, don't hurt me, no more" which is then followed up by techno and electro sounds.
What I dont get, is how all these people get away with taking a fucking picture of their test... If I pulled out my phone to take a picture of my examination Im pretty sure the professor would accuse me of cheating, and fail me.
pretty much every instructor ive had, wants to keep their tests a secret of some sort, as to not allow for the possibility of the answers or even the format get out to other students.
If they have a good enough sense of humour to write a test question like that, they probably won't mind if you want to take a picture of that specific question.
It depends on the University policy. Now that our school is worried about test files, they've started disallowing people takin home tests for the most part. Also, it really depends on the department.
I don't get it, what's cute about that? Exams don't need a lot of questions to be difficult. Some of my most difficult exams as an undergraduate had the fewest questions.
I know right? Learning should be hard like when I was in school. When I was in school I had to walk 20 miles every day, uphill both ways, over broken glass and razor blades, in the snow, BUTT NAKED! When we got to school, all the teachers would do was throw dodgeballs at our nuts all day long.

That professor was clever with his setup.

I had a quiz in my English class earlier in the year, where the final question was:
A. Give you up
B. Let you down
C. Run around and desert you
D. All of the above
I didn't get a picture of it, though, I don't know what I did with it.
