Aah, so it is all about the one particular professor and his exams...
Leon, please tell me - if you can't follow the subject he is teaching, then who's fault is it? University "not functioning" or your brain "not functioning"? I understand he doesn't provide enough learning material. Fair enough, make your own notes. Search for additional literature. Co-operate with students who have passed the professor's exams. Do anything in order to survive in the academic jungle.
Pursuing a degree in any academic field is strictly on a voluntary basis. You either play by their rules or walk. Thus, you simply can not claim university "does not function, period".
