The one about snacks, without the part saying the kid confused Snack with something similar sounding, that was definitely a “They had us in the first half” moment.
There was a thing in my 4th grade art class where you had to make a letter of appreciation to the principal and draw a picture of them (in this case, him) to go along with it. I did mine, handed it in, and forgot about it. It was only when I went to the principals office for a separate matter did I remember it, because mine was hanging on his wall. Looking back, the spelling and art was probably atrocious, but it still makes me happy to know he actually read them.
Kind of the opposite - friend of a friend was taking Mathematics final at a (well known) university. Exam was choose 5 out of 6 questions. They answered all six perfectly with time to spare and got 120% marks and a special prize - I am surprised they did not get marked down for not following instructions.
I’ve seen “pick 2 out of 3”-type questions before on physics exams, and they said they would default to the first ones if you answered more than needed. But that response makes perfect sense; why punish someone for doing more than expected, especially if they could do it all perfectly?
16:41 it’s not an actual essay, it’s closer to a short answer, where you have to show your work to get full credit (as opposed to multiple choice where you don’t have to explain anything about how you got your answer)
A couple of funny test answers my mom saw on a test she gave her art students several years ago. She asked them what they learned in class that week: Student 1: "What I have learn in art this week: 5 new vocabulary words that I haven't did before." Student 2: "I have learned vocabulary" In my Spanish class my junior year, one girl thought "the holiday where you give thanks" was Mardi Gras.
Not an exam, but I once said 'plaigue' instead of 'plunder' when I was having an oral presentation in History (I learn History in english and english isn't my first language and I didn't really know what either of them meant just remembered that there was a word with p in my notes) so I ended up saying something like: 'they went and attacked other countries for plague'.
I remember reading a story about a philosophy professor who warned his class there would be an upcoming exam. Sure enough, exam day arrives, and the prof puts a chair on his desk, then writes on the blackboard, "Prove to me this chair does not exist." Most students begin scribbling their dissertations, but one student writes two words and hands in his exam booklet. The two words are, "What chair?"
@@KnakuanaRka My theory is that the professor wanted the students to think on a deeper level, or at the very least have some personal reason to justify being a philosophy professor.
When I was in 4th grade the teacher used to let us take turns grading each other’s spelling tests (a horrible idea in retrospect) but this girl’s test I was grading got every single word wrong and then I had to minus 5 points for writing her name with a lower case first letter (this was a rule the teacher actually enforced) . I dragged her for getting a -5 for years
lol that snack one I would always do that as a kid. I would ask my mom a lot if I could have a snack but instead i would say snake. I look back at and just laugh
The Indiana Jones one is really good at how inaccurate the movie is. We can start with Kali being a benevolent god in Hindu Mythology and the fact that Mola Ram had a cattle skull headdress which is a major in Hinduism since they are the reason we have the term Sacred Cow.
Well, I don't think the cult were supposed to be "proper" Hindus. You wouldn't define the Manson cult as Christians, would you? Mola Ram betrayed Shiva. It's that simple.
@@critica77y77 True. But the real Thuggee were at worst con artists. Any implication they were some sort of evil cult comes from exaggerated claims by the British who cracked down on them in the 1880s.
I once had to write a child's story for HomeEc. I basically retold the origin story of Batman supporting character Ace the Bat-Hound because I am a pretty big Batman fan. I also don't know what possessed to do this but I replaced the generic criminal with of all characters Solomon Grundy who is barely a Batman villain. I also had to a writing prompt in fifth grade once and just wrote down the final act of Modern Warfare 2.
Yeah I got a 6% on a test that I put down some givens and drew a stick figure on because I didn't know anything on the test. Turned it in about 10 min after we started, but not before I looked online to see if I could drop the course (engineering class where we needed our laptops for part of the test to run matlab codes. We were allowed to use notes/internet but that actually wouldn't have helped me he made new questions not like the book every semester). The test was worth 25% of the grade and needed a minimum of a 73% C to get credit for the class. The department head wouldn't let me drop without dropping another because it was a Co-req, even though I had an A in the other course. Stayed in and worked my ass off and got a C+ thanks to a curve. Would not recommend.
I recently forgot how to do something in math. On the quiz, I substituted in a frowny face for that component. I knew how to do the rest, I just couldn't do that. Love that partial credit.
My business studies teacher told me this years ago, which her friend did in an exam. Psychology course, she knew she was going to fail the year. Final exam question: Does Dyslexia exist? Her answer: On
Once, I had no write a timed essay on whether or not I thought being Stubbkorn was good, bad, or depended on the situation. I had a great essay in mind but I just wrote 4 pages on why I'm not going to answer the prompt. I got a C on it
LOL...I was graduating from an EMT Class. The man selected to give the student speech compared the class to corn going through the digestive tract. Yes, the course was extremely difficult...but his speech was hilarious.
A friend who was then a student nurse, asked if I would proof-read her essay. It was good, appart from writing anti-natal (against birth) instead of ante-natal (before birth.)
In a French exam, there was a short story about an animal that escaped when a barn door was left open. When talking to others in my form, I found there were various ideas about what the animal was, including donkey, goat, sheep and rabbit!
I once had a test in marine biology where the question was something along the lines of: What can a fisherman do to avoid catching sea turtles? I knew the answer but I couldn't remember what it was called no matter what I tried so I eventually got fed up and just wrote "Don't go fishing" I got extra points because my teacher thought it was funny.
In Global Perspectives I forgot how to answer literally any of the questions that included a written response, so I just started quoting anime for my response to all of them, until I got to the final question (it required a full essay response). I wrote a full essay on how little I understood the class with randomized book quotes included. Prof said I had turned in the worst essay she had ever seen in her life.
By the time I finished high school I was so checked out and sick of everything that large portions of my English exam were ripped directly from Final Fantasy VIII. I really couldn't wait to be fucking done with it.
There was this time our class had to make sentences using words and one of them was 'flashy'. I wrote something along the lines of: 'The peacock has to be flashy so the peahen will agree to mate with him.'
we learned that many years ago, a single tree grew legs, and ran away. the legend goes that the tree annoys people in youtube comment sections, but its probably just a rumor....wait....
This is really random but one of my classmates in high school shortened Macbeth and Macduff to ‘Mac B’ and ‘Mac D’ in her notes. Girl was so used to doing so that she slipped up and wrote it like that in her essay. The teacher passed her cos it was funny
I was taking a exam in college and one of the bonus question was "what's America saying" and I forgot it so I put "Beer, Guns and Freedom" not "Give me liberty or give me death" And I passed that class
@@KnakuanaRka probably a reflection on how the test helped them retain information and the like, but it is also the type of question I absolutely despise. It is just wasted ink, it does not relate to anything that the class teaches, and it will probably be skipped or half-assed by students. And I will also despise the test makers that make such a question worth a significant portion of the test grade. Students think of tests as something they need to get a good grade on to pass, and nothing more.
I forgot everything for my english lit exam, the books we had covered were of mice and men and inspector calls I was so nervous for the exam because if I failed it I wouldent get into the college we lived near and getting to a diferent one would be almost imposible I was also terrible at english and failed every exam previously anyway, i get into the room and forget everything about both books could remember everything about Gurren Lagann tho so I wrote every question based on that, with the meanings behind specific scenes got a B one mark off an A I think the person who marked the exam was either incredibly generous, or a fan of the show teacher asked me for permission to get it remarked, I told him under no circumstances was he to request that even if my mother gave him permission Dident tell him for 5 years what I had done
3:57 Now, if you excuse me, I'm going to listen to my Disney picture dicks. 10:27 This is why neurotypicals were a mistake. 12:10 Wait... do they not sing the national anthem at assembly in America? Because I only ever hear that it's sung at sporting events.
