Exams in the stone age

As I sit here waiting for my ATPL exam initial results I can't help feeling that the whole CAA system of examinations is embarrasingly outdated and very user unfriendly.

If I can study online and complete progress tests on line why do I need to travel to a CAA test centre for 3 consecutive days for 5 exams (why not 5 on one day)and why can't I test on a PC? and why can't I get immediate results ?

Come on CAA get with the rest of the world and move with the times

OK I know this is a rant and no response is required but has anybody else experienced these feelings ? I am sure that the days of pencil marks on paper and electronic scanning are long gone !!!
