One of my prof's is known for having difficult, high-pressure tests. Every student is either warned about it before they get into his class or rapidly figure it out come test time. He also happens to have a public blog. Once, he blogged about his tests. He wondered if "high-pressure tests" are more of a test of a person's ability to handle pressure, than how well a person knows the content of the test. He may very well be giving out better grades to the people who can handle pressure than the people who know the material better but do poorly because they are stressed about the test.
I feel like I can handle tests under pressure much better if I am confident in the subject. If I don't have complete understanding of the topic, I start to get really nervous, though.
