I prefer exams over like a project or 5+ page paper any day. Less work, less time-consuming, and not too hard to at least get by even if you have no idea what you're doing.
Although English tests were always annoying. Luckily in college it's all about writing papers and essays for English/Writing (which I hate anyway but is pretty easy to get a good grade on when it comes to English.. not so much other subjects if you don't understand the material).
