Fun ways to fail an exam
So I am pretty sure I am going to fail MATH 1zz5, and I have been de-stressing by trying to think of interesting things to do during the exam that might be an instant fail but at least give other students a good laugh.

Any suggestions?

take the exam papers, stand up and rip them up? take the exam papers and run out the room? or just make exam airplanes and throw them in the room.

During the Econ 1bb3 test some girl asked for the instructor to take her paper 40 minutes in. The Scantron was blank and seeing the instructors face was priceless.

That's sad.
I'm at the bottom of the food chain and even I got an 8 in that course.

The course was more difficult then last year, i had last years mid terms and they were easier then ours, regardless, if you dont do the readings or watch the podcasts, you wont be able to do the questions.

Learn all the trivia bullshit about matrix and subspace properties. I remember that made up a lot of the questions in the math 1ZZ5 exam last year

Or throw up all over your exam paper and just walk away. I'd lol at that.

Let's see. You can...
Make paper airplanes out of the exam. Aim them at the teacher's left nostril.

Talk the entire way through the exam. Read questions aloud, debate your answers with yourself out loud. If asked to stop, yell out, "I'm SOOO sure you can hear me thinking." Then start talking about what a jerk the instructor is.

Walk in, get the exam, sit down. About five minutes into it, loudly say to the instructor, "I don't understand ANY of this. I've been to every lecture all semester long! What's the deal? And who the hell are you? Where's the regular guy?"

Bring a Game Boy. Play with the volume at max level.

On the answer sheet find a new, interesting way to refuse to answer every question. For example: I refuse to answer this question on the grounds that it conflicts with my religious beliefs. Be creative.

Run into the exam room looking about frantically. Breathe a sigh of relief. Go to the instructor, say "They've found me, I have to leave the country" and run off.

Fifteen minutes into the exam, stand up, rip up all the papers into very small pieces, throw them into the air and yell out "Merry Christmas." If you're really daring, ask for another copy of the exam. Say you lost the first one. Repeat this process every fifteen minutes.

Do the exam with crayons, paint, or fluorescent markers.

Come into the exam wearing slippers, a bathrobe, a towel on your head, and nothing else.

Come down with a BAD case of Tourette's Syndrome during the exam. Be as vulgar as possible.

Do the entire exam in another language. If you don't know one, make one up! For math/science exams, try using Roman numerals.

Bring things to throw at the instructor when s/he's not looking. Blame it on the person nearest to you.

As soon as the instructor hands you the exam, eat it!



I’d find more but Family Feud is on.

Sit there with a confused look on your face for about 5 minutes and then say (out loud) "wait a minute! This isn't chemistry!"

Ask to go to the toilet. Return and complain (loudly) that there is no toilet paper. Pause, pick up your exam paper and stroll out.

Walk in, sit down, pick up the paper and sigh really loudly. Proceed to storm out angrily.

Bring a pillow and fall asleep on the paper.

When the invigilators tell you to put your calculator lids down, immediately put the exam paper on the floor as well. When asked why, say you think it's going to tell you the answer and you're waiting for the movie.
