I ran into my ex at work and it got existential.
Unmade by Grace
All my school and college years 1980-1990 all liberal arts and some STEM exams were oral presentations.
You get into the exam room, you randomly pick a card, turn it over, read the topic, sit down for 15 minutes to get your sh*t together and bam! You present to your professor or to a group of professors a comprehensive answer to a question and then you answer their questions. Very little room for cheating and a well rounded evaluation of your knowledge and understanding of the subject.

My daughter is a PhD student in physical chemistry at UC Berkeley. Her qualifying exam to advance into the PhD level was oral, in front of several professors and a white board. So, it is still happening.
