Today, my math TA showed the class how one of her "dumb" students answered a test question. Everyone laughed as she wrote out the students answer, including myself, until I looked down at my answer sheet and saw that I submitted an identical answer. FML

Today, after I took my first set of exams, my professor posted on Twitter, scoffing at how stupid one student's answer was. The answer he quoted was one that I wrote. FML

Today, as I went into my calculus class, the teacher announced that someone had received a negative grade on the test we were getting back. I laughed and said, "Which f*cker managed to get a negative?" Turns out I'm the dumbass. FML

Today, we were taking a bio quiz and I understood the subject, so the people sitting behind me asked me to help them out. Being a kind fellow classmate, I did. When the teacher got suspicious, she asked the class, "How are all of you getting the same answers?" everyone pointed directly at me. FML

Today, I was accused of cheating on our math test, instantly granting me a perfect zero. How? I used the wrong formula on a problem, but ended up with the correct answer. FML

Today, I got back my math test. Instead of taking the time to mark the mistakes, my professor just circled the bottom half of the page and wrote "OMG." FML

The old switcheroo

Today, I got my precalculus final back from my teacher. I got a 17%. I told her that there had to be some mistake, because my classmate had the same answers as me and she got 100%. Not only did I accidentally admit to cheating, but our test papers had different questions. FML

Today, I cheated on a math test by writing a couple of equations on my hand. Totally satisfied, I handed my test in, feeling like I had aced it. As I was heading toward the door, I happily waved goodbye to my teacher. She saw everything. FML

Today, I took a final for my law class. As I was taking the test, I noticed the girl on my left copying off me. I wrote all the wrong answers on my sheet while writing the correct answers on my desk hoping she would copy the wrong answers down. I forgot to write the correct answers on my test. FML

Today, a student turned in homework she copied off an online answer key. The wrong key. My students are too stupid to cheat right. FML

Learn to laugh at your stupidity man, otherwise life won't be as much fun! as example, it's not uncommon for me to write the biggest crap on a math test, or drawing smiley faces instead of a calculation because I have noo idea what I have to do

That's really unprofessional. And all of you who are saying YDI don't know how well the OP did on the other questions in the test, and you don't know how hard this person studied for it.

Completely unprofessional a-hole TA. Not surprising. TAs are a blight on the educational system in this country. They all should go to hell.

There is no way you can top my stupid answer. I rushed through my homework and for question "where is it hottest on the diagram" i put snow. Guess who got called out in the middle of class!

it's the TA's fault, not yours. calling someone stupid is not conducive to good learning. if you want to show a 'dumb' example, use one from a previous year, not from someone in the room. the TA should have made an appointment to see you or something.

this always happens to me all my teacher think my answers are either to out there or they are to long and all over the place, but once they read them out loud they always realize that they really do make sense
