In academics, procedures or methodologies are produced to guide each academic calendar so as to achieve a set goal(s) or objectives, and most academic calendars runs between 3 - 4 months per semester.

Part of the responsibilities of the university governing council should ensure exam questions are submitted for scrutiny, months before it is taken. This act will reduce some unprecedented questions geared towards suffering innocent students cognitively for a period of 3 hours or less.

It is sad to see students attend classes forcefully fixed by lecturer(s) few days to exams as a result of their inability to cover course outline within a given time frame and will enshrine most of these topics rushly covered in this short period to the exams.

Why should students attend fixed classes even on Saturdays and Sundays as to cover course outline whereas exams is on Monday?

What you can't achieve in 3 - 4 months, will never be achieved in 2 - 4 hours.

It is hard already to reproduce what was learnt in 3 months or more within 1-3 hours.

End fixing of classes few days to exams!

Cover your course outline with stipulated time and allow students to prepare for exams.

Make teaching/learning process, learner oriented!
