Can Life Be A Test?

If one is wise, they will find out what is needed to pass BEFORE the test.
In a corrupted world bad things happen to everybody, suffering was not the initial situation nor the intent of the designer.
If you want to find the responsible parties- find a mirror.
Mirrors have been around a long time and the shoe fits.
While that is true (that the majority of people will study before an exam), my analogy rests on the fact that giving students different exams and still expecting all of them to get the same grade, the top grade, is unfair. Since one exam, in the analogy, is more difficult than the other (because it has harder questions) it makes it harder to get the top grade.

As an example, let's suppose one of the exams has questions such as:
2+2= ?
And getting this question correct is worth ten points.

And a different exam includes advanced algebra in it but getting each algebra question correct is only worth one point. The person who has the algebra questions has more they need to do/remember in order to get the expected grade. Both students may have studied but they didn't know what, exactly, would be in their test. Clearly the student getting the exam with lots of really easy questions, such as 2+2, is going to have a much higher chance of getting the expected grade.

All of the exams give the students a possibility of obtaining the A grade but I don't think anybody would argue that the lecturer is being fair to their students. Yet when we replace the lecturer with Allah somehow it's now fair that people are all given different tests. No two tests that Allah gives to people will be exactly the same and yet people are all expected to get the same result. Being a heterosexual man I obviously have a much easier chance of getting into Jannah than a homosexual, for example.

WTF people?
