The worst thing the educational system does is to train you that the way to win is by hacking bad tests - Paul Graham

This essay really stuck with me because it outlines my experience with formal education. I'm curious to know your thoughts, especially professional educators, on the grading system. By having tests that are not measuring learning, what is actually being measured and why? Do you think it's bad that learning is conflated with grades?
