To be relevant to aviation, the exams should on:

1. How to read METARS and TAFS.
2. The three times table.
3. Eating cold, unplatable meals on your lap.
4. How to write pointless numbers, words and drivel in small boxes on badly designed plogs.
5. Flower arranging, car mechanics, interior decorating and crosswords.

You would have a very high chance of using what you are taught and we could drop the rest. However, my guess is that those studying will continue to get about without the pleasure of foreplay.
