Its the Teachers, stupid........

not exactly. standardized tests are going to be multiple choice. do you have to know the math to realize that the answer that is way different from the other answers is going to be wrong basically all of the time? there are tons of little "tricks" to be taught related to tests to improve scores that have literally nothing to do with knowing the information.

real life is full of those little tricks too. I don't consider learning the little tricks cheating, I consider that learning.
