Wifey works at uni. From all her stories, sounds like a strategy I'd adopt to boost my GPA, if it existed back then.

Of course, there are also true cases where it takes 4 hours to complete a 30-minute test.

All it does is kill the GPA signal completely. One amongst many before, pure noise now.

[edit: not denying people need it. but it appears like folks that don't also use it]

Tell me about it. My best hire had a horrible GPA.

But I get it. If the job doesn't demand creativity but just following orders, GPA was a signal for it.

If someone needs 4 hours to complete a 30-minute test they should be in a school for the disabled.
