    Got a this mail just now, and it reminded me of school years. The mail wasn't in English, so don't know if meaning is lost in translation. Things people do in exams Boys ==== 1. Counting the number of girls in the examination hall. 2. If invigilators are female, observing their figure. 3. Counting the number of windows, doors, bulbs, squares in the ceiling, and floor tiles. 4. Detailed examination of the pen, which includes noticing the brand name several times. 5. Wondering why he did not study beforehand. 6. Making a mental note to make sure this does not happen in the next exam. Girls ==== 1. Writing... 2. Writing... 3. Writing... 4. Writing... 5. Writing... 6. Writing...

    Pardon me for discrimination

    Eh, there are no girls here, just boys. Boys can't discriminate themselves. :rolleyes: In school I had a different style. The whole exams I wrote more then everybody else, but in the final exams I wrote fast and after half the time I said I had finished and hand my work in to the teacher. All the others cried and wrote faster, thinking, they were to slow. My grades were still good enough and they hated me for that. :-\ I'm evil - but I feel good!

      I finished a 4 hour physics exam in 2 hours and was worried shitless that I had missed something. Checked, double checked and went over what I had done. So, got up and walked out. As I was leaving one of the invigilators asked me if I was alright, and whether I had a problem. "No, I said loudly enough for all to hear, "It was so simple I knocked it off in a couple of hours, I would have left earlier but didn't want the rest of them to get disheartened" I got an 'A'.

              Excuse me sir, but I have to disagree. I made most tests as though they were intelligence tests, learning nothing and reinventing everything on the spot. It was easy enough that no "looking around" was required. The only thing that really didn't work for was redox reactions (they must make sense somehow but I still don't know how), which I therefore saved in my TI-84+. It didn't work for History and languages either, and you couldn't use a calculator, so I nearly failed them.

                      7. look at the prettiest girl and ask yourself why she's not looking at you instead of writing. 8. look at the second prettiest girl and ask yourself why she's not looking at you instead of writing. 9. look at the third prettiest girl, notice she looks like a troll hit by an oncoming train and focus again on girl #1.
