WHAT TO DO WHEN YOU KNOW YOU'RE GOING TO FAIL THE EXAM
1. Bring a pillow. Fall asleep (or pretend to) until the last 15 minutes. Wake up, say "Oh geez, better start cracking" and do some gibberish work. Turn it in a few minutes early.
2. Get a copy of the exam, run out screaming "Andre, Andre, I've got the secret documents!"
3. If it is a math/science exam, answer in essay form. If it is long answer/essay form, answer with numbers and symbols. Be creative. Use the integral symbol.
4. 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.
5. Bring cheerleaders.
6. 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 heck are you? Where's the regular guy?"
7. Bring pets.
8. 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.
9. Fifteen minutes into the exam, stand up, rip up all the papers into very small pieces, throw them into the air and yell out "[Insert holiday greeting here]." If you're really daring, ask for another copy of the exam. Say you lost the first one. Repeat this process every fifteen minutes.
10. Do the exam with crayons, paint or fluorescent markers.
11. Come into the exam wearing slippers, a bathrobe, a towel on your head, and nothing else.
12. Do the entire exam in another language. If you don't know one, make one up! For math/science exams, try using Roman numerals.
13. As soon as the instructor hands you the exam, eat it.
14. Walk into the exam with an entourage. Claim you are going to be taping your next video during the exam. Try to get the instructor to let them stay; be persuasive. Tell the instructor to expect a percentage of the profits if they are allowed to stay.
15. Every five minutes, stand up, collect all your things, move to another seat, and continue with the exam.
16. Turn in the exam approximately 30 minutes into it. As you walk out, start commenting on how easy it was.
17. Bring a black marker. Return the exam with all questions and answers completely blacked out.
18. Every now and then, clap twice rapidly. If the instructor asks why, tell him/her in a very derogatory tone, "The light bulb that goes on above my head when I get an idea is hooked up to a clapper. DUH!"
19. Come to the exam wearing a black cloak. After about 30 minutes, put on a white mask and start yelling, "I'm here, the phantom of the opera!" until they drag you away.
20. Go to an exam for a class you have no clue about, where you know the class is very small, and the instructor would recognize you if you belonged. Claim that you have been to every lecture. Fight for your right to take the exam.
21. Come in wearing a full knight's outfit, complete with a sword and shield.
22. Bring cheat sheets TO ANOTHER CLASS (make sure this is obvious...like history notes for a calculus exam...otherwise you're not just failing, you're getting kicked out too) and staple them to the exam, with the comment "Please use the attached notes for references as you see fit."
23. After you get the exam, call the instructor over, point to any question, and ask for the answer. Try to work it out of him/her.
24. Bring balloons, blow them up, start throwing them around like they do before concerts start.
25. Try to get people in the room to do the wave.
