I got AABB and then a first in my BSc, so exams were an excellent way of testing me.

Using exams to measure aptitude might benefit you greatly but that doesn't mean they're a great way of measuring your aptitude.
Sure you might be relatively worse off if a method of testing that has stronger correlation between indicated performance and actual performance were introduced but it'd still be a better way of testing you.

And a 2 on the Chemistry Special paper. But then I only got a 2-2 for my degree. I suspect the introduction of serious quantities of alcohol may have played a part in this dramatic slide.
