It's an interesting point.. I do agree memorisation is (and always has been) used as more of a substitute for actual skills. It's always been a bugbear of mine that people aren't taught to problem solve, just regurgitate facts, when facts are literally at our fingertips 24/7.
Yea, it isn’t even a new problem. The exam was questionable before AI.
Inflection? I used the present tense of
be/isfor past events ... that's a tense or conjugation. No inflections occur with irregular verbs like that. Are you not on top of your grammar?
