Description
I think teachers and professors get a real kick out of making questions for tests. They seem to pick the most confusing phrasing and answers ever!Regardless, I'm finished with finals, and it is sa-weeeet.

On my last Ap Euro test I swear there was a double double double negative question. It confused the hell out of me
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
a) 7 (red,orange,yellow,green,blue,indigo,violet)
b) 1 (white)
c) infinite
d) 6 (red, orange,yellow, blue,indigo,violet) our teacher was red/green colorblind)
So it was just as much a F*** with us question, except you couldn't get it wrong.

lawl. The last question on my science final was
The noise pollution in my classroom is stressful and should be reduced.
A. True
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
That's it easy it's letter A : )
Because it is true that that sentence it's false : 3
see ? simple : D

LOL xD i once had a teacher that gave us all double negative questions with the answer as false.... it was so confusing.

Out of curiousity, what do YOU think the answer is?

*snickers* I think I've had a question like that afore.. >..> Teachers do enjoy watching us squirm....
Congrats on finishing though. ^..^

seriously!!!
i got the question: What does NOT describe the figure correctly?
a)rhombus
b)quadrilateral
c)parallelogram
d)polygon
and it can't be B or D so i was stuck with A or C.
but it couldn't be either and i spent 10 minutes to finally decide my answer (i chose A DX)

Yea... once on my math exam, one question asked how stars were made... nice going mister DAM! (Those are his initials...we'll go with that... no seriously its tru.) How I hate finals. Good drawing tho...

Weird question and answer phrasing is the absolute worst!
I agree, half the time it just feels like thats how teachers get their kicks is by torturing their students.

Uh, I'm too lazy to read all of the comments on this deviation, but I feel like pointing out that none of the answers to that question would be technically correct:
If the answer was A or B, there would be a logical contradiction.
If the answer was C, D, or E, it would contradict the idea that every statement MUST be either true xor false.
If the Question were worded as follows:
"The answer to this question is "False."
A) True
B) False
C) B is the correct answer."
... C would be correct, because the correct answer would not technically be "False," but "B is the correct answer," which also references the state of falsehood.

I know what you mean. Questions like that ... the teachers must just be trying to mess with our minds.

Kid, I hate to say this, but this is how voting ballets (national and local) are worded now. At least this art has OPTIONS...in the voting booth, they word things to say one thing and mean another, to trap you into voting for what you didn't want. Devious. I stay outta that stuff. I could end up voting in a nuclear waste dump in my back yard. LOL
BYW, LOVE this thing. Faving it.

There was this problem that my teacher gave where you had to figure out how much money was given to the school for selling the choir CDs and how much money did our choir teacher get to spend on neckties. O.o
And the answer was:
*insert # here* for the school, and
NONE FOR THE TEACHER. Why? Because he gets NUTIN'. NADA.
Now how were we, 6th graders shut off from the world, supposed to know that!?

Ah. It's like one of those exams that has all of these stupid questions and at the bottom it just says "Do not answer any of these questions. Write your name on the top of the paper and turn it in.".

are you done now? If yes yay. anyway I just wanted to tell you this is my bg and my brother said this was great and really funny

Yes I sure am!! It feels great to be done with tests (for now)!
I'm honored that you chose this picture for a desktop and I'm glad yer bro found it funny!

Oh man, I hate tests. Especially bio. LIke, I think easy questions are too easy and are supposed to be harder than they actually are, so like on questions that are like: What do the Electron Train...stuff do? And the options are: Move ATP somewhere. Move ADPM somewhere. Or move Electrons somwhere.... This was actually similar to the question on one of my tests. And instead of going for the given (Electrons) I went for the darn ATP answer. BECAUSE I THOUGHT IT WAS A TRICK QUESTION!!

Oh, the paradox.
They kill us with the questions!!!! My AP test sounds like it's going to be like that...
I'm scared....
Nice job, hilarious as usual.

*agrees*
then there are the teachers that make joke answers. Once I had a test where the last answers on all the multiple choice questions were about the Muppet Show xD;; As in: "Which is a cause of the Great Depression? D: To much watching of the Muppet Show" xDDD;;

I absolutely love it when teachers do that!! For one, it makes choosing the answer easier, and it also tells you a bit about the teacher. XD

True, it's one other answer you're absolutely sure of! xD Though they can get distracting sometimes... xD;

I kno rite?I have this teacher who does
the same thing and then when he hands
it back to go over it,he always says
" I don't understand how u fail these test when I make them so easy"
frustrating,no?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Indeed it is! Teachers should base themselves on the performance of the class....if everyone's failing, there might be a bit of a problem
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
actually that would be a big problem, but the shouldn't teach in a way that it seems like a only an expert on the subject can comprehend it. T_T they must enjoy watching students suffer.

Genius!
I know how you feel.
In the last quiz for my chemistry class, the professor had "D: I'm going to fail this class" as an option.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Oh man!! That's terrible--poor motivation for students!! XD
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
It was a CPS quiz, where the whole class reads the answer from the projections screens and responds using a keypad. Everyone laughed when they read the option "D". After each question we got to see how many people got it right and wrong. Some person actually chose "D".

I always took the "five minutes of studying a day before" approach. If I studied too much, or too close to the test time, it screwed me up. Flying by the seat of the pants.
BTW, the answer to that question is eezzzzzy. It's a boot to the head of whoever puts something like that on a test.

OMG! SO TRUE! Once, two years ago, my science teacher asked what the shape of his bald spot was, as an extra credit question. The whole class was like: WTF?!?! 0_o
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
XDDD Still, that's pretty cool if a teacher is confident enough to point out their bald spot to the whole class!

I KNOW!!! Those sadistic bastards! How many years of my life have they prematurely killed with stressful questions like this?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
probably about 8 years, that's what it's tallying up to for me!

OMG there as a question like that in the High School exit exams! (But with math) Very weird and tricky...
Well, hope you did good on your test ^^
