I will make an easy exam

Did he just say it to stimulate us, or really it will be simple?
Well, this phrase and others like "Most people approve", "I'll try to pass everyone" or "If you have studied, you can pass" is what you can hear from a teacher. No doubt that this teacher can be considered polite, and sometimes can be a beloved teacher for his sense of humor or his way of teaching. But why he can do an easy test and another teacher can't?
I know that is not the same History than English, Chemistry than Philosophy, Mathematics than Gymnastics, etc. While one can appreciate that you've memorized some formulations and how you play with them until you find the true combination, otherwise appreciates how you can memorize dates and names and then write them exactly in the precise order.
Yes, I know that everyone says that if you study enough, you can learn, which may be the most important thing at these moments. But the important thing (I think) is to get a good number, a good mark. Bone, why not all teachers "can make an easy test? In all subjects we should study before the test and then fill it. What X teacher can makes that, and Y teacher can't?
Yes, some subjects tend to "weigh" more than others, but there are forms to simplificate them anyway... Why the teacher can't say wich formulation or names will appear in the exam? (If it will be more important, or more difficult).
Well, saying this I have only given my opinion, nothing more. I will not criticize or value any teacher, as perhaps some of them share my view. And yes, I know that they do what their superiors send their. See you soon =D
