An exam can be a tense and nerve racking atmosphere, so it’s always nice when something funny or downright ridiculous happens during it. From stink bombs to cheaters getting their comeuppance, here are the 6 funniest things to happen during an exam.
Now this is true commitment to the cause, and it has a pretty incredible conclusion from an enthusiastic non-student.
My college roommate took a summer class to get his grades up and sometimes I would be bored and go with him. It was early American history, pretty interesting stuff, and the professor was solid so it wasn’t a bad way to kill a few hours.
Any way, the third time I did this was actually an exam day. Now I had two options: walk out and force an awkward interaction along the lines of “yeah I know I’ve been here a few times and even spoke up in class but I’m not actually enrolled” or I could buckle down and take the exam.
So I took the exam. I wrote on the first page on the Blue Book “hey, I’m not actually in your class, but I didn’t want to walk out, so you shouldn’t waste your time grading this but I’m going to give it 100%.”
My roommate came back from class a few days later and told me “the kid not actually in the class” got the fifth highest grade.
