Sam's Bubble explains how to explain stuff in an oral exam:

luckily the psychology course i took in gr. 10 actually paid off and i BSed heidegger. they asked me "what's heidegger referring to when he mentions the essence of truth?" my answer: "by the essence of truth, he is referring to freedom. and when he refers to freedom, he is referring to a state/process of uncovering the truth. we are individuals that are intergrated into the world in such a way that we're not seperate. with this in mind, the truth is not found in us, but around us, and it is done through our actions. this uncovering is freedom, and therefore is the essence of truth. he wants us to take things as they are, and not BS our way out of things."

I love the humanties. I got through several classes in this manner. Unfortunately this technique does work for courses steeped in partial-differential equations.  ¶ 6:56 PM
