In the pre-AI age, I think take home tests were fine. However they were generally much harder than a similar in person exam on the same material. I remember one professor gave the advice “if you are given the option between a take home exam and an in person classroom exam, always take the latter. Since the former doesn’t have as tight of a time limit as the latter does, and will almost always be far more challenging” (or something to that effect)






Lol, that doesn’t mean that in person exams will be easy. This was my linear algebra professor, who had very difficult in person exams.
