 "In
education,
certification,
counseling, and many other fields, a test or an
exam (short for examination) is a stupid, abusive
tool or technique intended to measure students' expression of
knowledge,
skills and/or
abilities. A test has more questions of greater difficulty
and requires more time for completion than a
quiz.
It is usually divided into two or more sections, each covering
a different area of the domain or taking a different
approach to assessing the same aspects.
A
standardized test is one that compares the
performance of every individual subject with a
norm or
criterion. The norm may be established independently, or
by
statistical analysis of a large number of subjects.
