Wtf are those even good for? My pencil case from back in the day alone would take up like a third of the while thing. Does an A4 even fit on it?

I had to take a physics exam in a room with these desks. The exam was on that super long paper too. After tearing off the formula sheet and setting that on your lap, trying to work out the problems and keep all your stuff organized was impossible. After hearing the 3rd calculator fall on the floor less than 2 minutes into the exam I just had to laugh out loud at the absurdity of the whole situation.

The "desk" above looks like something out of an auditorium/lecture hall some of the schools I've attended had. It would be built into the fixed stadium seating and fold out. A more typical classroom thing would either be separate chairs and desks, or the "chair with a built-in desk that has a right-side armrest" kind of thing.
