The exam's done wrong. Intellisense mostly gives you navigation in a big project (shouldn't need that in a written test) and method name auto-complete.
Remembering it's ToString() and not tostring() or PrintAsString() is pointless. What matters is computational thinking.

Some colleges will, for sure. Probably not the good ones.
