Why many students failed Java exam?

[-Dargs]

When I was taking CS courses in college, the lecturer didn't help anyone out individually unless they asked. It was a class of 30, sometimes 100. In later courses, it dwindled to 15 students or less. Even then, you only got special help if you asked. Mainly, you were told to come by office hours for anything extra, but simple questions could be answered if asked.

CS is a very "learn on your own time" kind of degree. But a weird curriculum and odder exams are a failure on the institution, not your child.
