Dr. Schech's Exam Style

Even if you arrive at the correct answer during exams, you'll frequently second-guess your answer and start panicking, because the correct solution looks so weird and unrealistic.
Dr. Schech loves to use Disney's Frozen and Marvel characters on her exams. This is not to entertain you, but they show her extra effort in creating challenging questions that make students cry, or want to cry, midway through their exams.
In the 4 years I've been tutoring her class, Dr. Schech has created all of her own questions and has never ONCE repeated a problem verbatim on any of her exams.
Most exams are designed for students to finish or answer accurately, but not BOTH at the same time.
