Miscellaneous: Today, I finished my SAT and was feeling pretty good about it....

Today, I finished my SAT and was feeling pretty good about it. I decided to turn on my phone, since it was on silent. As the guy was collecting our tests, my phone vibrated a little. My score was cancelled. It was a text from my mom reminding me to turn off my phone. FML

Today, my entire junior class took the ACT. On the last test, a classmate's phone went off, automatically invalidating the whole test. We all have to retake it. FML

Today, I was taking the SAT and feeling really confident in my answers. When we were close to finishing, some idiot pulled the fire alarm. All of us have to retake it. FML

Today, my parents yelled at me for 10 minutes without letting me get a word in edgeways for getting a 48 on my test. They took my phone, unplugged my internet, and took my car keys. They wouldn't listen no matter how many times I told them, "It was out of 50". It actually was. FML

Today, my mom texted me in the middle of my end of term math exam, saying it was extremely urgent and needed me to come home ASAP. While skipping my exam, I finally got home to find out my mom forgot what the emergency was. FML

Today, I was giving a lecture to my class I heard a phone go off. Aggravated and exhausted, I asked everyone to turn their phones off. Then the phone rang again. I lost my shit and spent the next half hour calling my students a bunch of "technology whores". Then I realized the phone was mine. FML

Panic in the streets of London

Today, like every day, everyone blew up my phone at once and I began having a panic attack. Because I didn’t respond immediately, I was called rude and a bad person. Turning off my phone isn’t an option either, because my mom will come in my room and cuss me out for not responding to her texts. FML

Today, I was taking a biology final and was just randomly tapping my pencil. My teacher thought I was somehow communicating with the person next to me, and decided to fail me. FML

Today, my school took part in a standardized state test. After finishing, I decided to take a nap, only to be awoken by the test monitor, who wanted me to leave. Apparently, I was ferociously farting in my sleep and was disturbing the people still taking the test. FML

Why would you ever, ever turn your phone on when still in the room? You deserve that twice.

you deserve that sooo much...they repeat over and over again DO NOT TURN YOUR PHONE ON UNTIL YOU LEAVE THE BUILDING, is it that hard to be away from your cell phone for two seconds in order to take one of the most important tests of your academic life??

YDI. That's the stupidest thing in the world to do. You were warned a million times.

clearly you have a technology addiction. You honestly can't be without your phone for a few hours? God help you. Because you, most certainly, deserve it.

Lol @50 I have a similar (but not as stupid) story. Last week I was writing a National Biology Contest Test and had my phone in my bag. Luckily I put my bag at the front of the room so when it started vibrating (quite loudly) I wasn't suspected of cheating.

Uhh...fake. You decided to turn your phone ON because it was on SILENT, and then it VIBRATED...? Keep your story straight. I'm not saying this is fake because it could never happen, because it very well could. Btw, the place where I took my SAT they didn't make us keep our cellphones in the front. But YDI for not even waiting for the moderator to pass by.

You don't deserve a good SAT score if your stupid enough to turn on your phone during it!

On one hand, you should have turned off your damn phone, they only remind you like 40 times. On the other hand, he was COLLECTING your tests?? I'm pretty sure it's too late for any last-minute cheating via text at that point. Lame.
