Castle Learning 

An online testing/review program designed by sadists who enjoy seeing students of all ages cry at receiving low grades while taking online tests that score themselves automatically. Every so often the system will randomly freeze before telling you whether you were right or wrong just to increase your heart rate 10 more BPM.
Student: The Castle Learning is due at 11:59 pm tonight.
Friend: I know, I just finished it and got an 86. We only learned half the questions in class.
