May I have a rant about PPL exams?

Well, where do I start?

I have identified a number of questions in the exams where the answer given was simply wrong. I proved this afterwards to the examiner and he just shrugged. Seeing as I passed there was no point complaining.

Other times, I have answered correctly, but only after spending ages re-reading the question and possible answers until I still couldn't understand what on earth they were asking, but had to put something down! I only got the answers right by guesstimating what they 'might' be asking.

It shouldn't be necessary for people to have to spend so much time trying to decypher the questions. In any other profession the incompetence of the examining would be headline news.
