While we were growing up in universities (Baby, i miss those times) we used to have Open Books Exams. Before Exam professor used to ask about open book and closed book exam. And we would always rise our hands for Open Books. But seriously people, that paper used to take all whats inside my rectum out at that time :-)

But now in Denmark, Government has decided to allow Internet during examination. Yeah!! The quick adrenaline shot, u felt it right now. In this part of the world, we think of negativity than positivity first. We are so pessimistic. So, we would be thinking first that how come they allowed internet? People will cheat easily now. To rectify this problem, they only asked students not to use email and chats and any kind of conversation software outside this particular examination hall. And rest they left it on students that they are so disciplined that they won't cheat. Folks, thats trusting your own people. Can you do trust on such a large scale? The very next thought on our mind after the pessimistic burp would be "Wow!!, its cool. So much freedom.". Rightly thought. So much freedom but at the expense of facing the death squad (disciplinary committee always feels like one, dont they) if got caught.

Currently, this project has been implemented at some schools final examination so there is still time before the final legal implementation of this particular law nation wide.
