blue book exam

Handwritten college final

A blue book exam is a written test, typically in college courses, where students compose essay answers in standardized booklets with blue covers.

The format emphasizes extended responses over multiple choice: I have three blue book exams during finals week.

The term often appears shortened to just "blue book": The professor handed out blue books at the start of class.
