&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I'd think open book exams are tougher. The questions are usually
trickier.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;p&gt;first time when i encountered open book exam was in sec1. that
time the whole class felt so happy la when the teacher said you can
refer to your textbook during the exam.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
then in the end, no one study for it. coz can refer to textbook
ma.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
hahahaa. big mistake. because you have to be really familiar with
your textbook to find the answers quickly. it's really very hard
la! the time so short some more! and so many questions!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
so the next times when we had open book exams, we would still study
our textbooks. but it's very hard to score!! competition is tough.
questions are really hard too.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
so i dislike open book tests.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
closed book tests studious and hardworking types will have an edge
over those who don't try hard or with poor memories. and teachers
are sometimes more lenient when marking too. questions aren't so
tough. &lt;img title="Smile" src=
"/images/emoticons/classic/icon_smile.gif" alt="Smile" /&gt; and i
think it tests your knowledge more?&lt;/p&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;p&gt;depends on subject and also depends on the paper&lt;br /&gt;

if it's writing an essay, open book dunno will help u anot.....&lt;/p&gt;</description>

&lt;p&gt;Open Book Exam.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Why? Because the answer cannot be found in there. &lt;img title=

&lt;div class="quote_body"&gt;I dunno about RP but I find open book exams
a little harder. The exam was structured in a way that didn't
really give you any time to look through the book.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Plus side is that some people rely on the book too much and
under-prepare for the exam thinking they can find the answer as and
when they want it. It's very difficult to find exactly what you
want in a 1000 page textbook while under pressure.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;actually i always find closed book harder.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Cos i'm tronger at understanding and my memory sucks.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
and yes the fact that otehr pple under-prepare for the exam helps
too &lt;img title="Mr. Green" src=

      <description>&lt;p&gt;Difficult as in what? Finding info or scoring?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Finding info isn't that difficult if you revised... scoring is hard
since everybody also know how to copy and paste... &lt;img title=
