Today, after burning all my past-papers, books and notes in celebration of finishing maths forever, I found out I have to re-take my maths exam to get the minimum grade for college. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I cheated on my math exam. I still failed. FML
Today, I failed a calculus exam because I simply was too burnt out to study for it. I have not wanted to even look at a math problem since the beginning of the year, and I procrastinate all day instead of doing work, and it leads me here, typing at 2 a.m. to random strangers while having to get up tomorrow at 7. FML
Today, I had the worst day of my life. I'd studied science for the whole damn night, only to realize the next morning that it's a math exam. FML
Today, I failed my maths exam because of one single question, which I have been practicing for months and gotten very good at it. It was the first question… however, when the exam started, I forgot it all. FML
Today, I had my final economics exam, and needed to ace it, or else I would fail the entire module. After studying all day yesterday, and pulling an all-nighter today, I managed to pull it off and get a perfect score. Unfortunately, my teacher didn't believe that it was possible, and accused me of cheating. Now I may be thrown out of college. FML
Today, a few people in my class used calculators on the math final exam, even though it clearly stated at the top that they weren't allowed. The teacher found out, and now everyone has to retake the 200-question exam. I didn't even use a calculator. FML
Today, after having spent all of last night studying for an algebra test, I find out that the test was on a completely different chapter of my textbook. FML
Today, I got my first university math midterm back. I did so bad that my teacher put a sadface on the first page. FML
Today, I found out that I've been taking the wrong math class all semester. We're only a few weeks from finals and I have no drops left. FML
Today, I had a maths test and I realised that I'd studied the wrong topics. The teacher said the test would be difficult and I stayed up till 1 a.m. just to be prepared. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

Why do so many people think they can just throw away or destroy their papers and stuff when they THINK they are done? Keep hold of crap for 6 months before tossing it just to make sure.

Why would you burn your books? You can probably get money for those! I mean burning your notes is dumb enough...

That TOTALLY sucks but...YDI. You should have used a tiny bit of common sense and checked to see if you had to do that exam. Plus...burning? Really? You should have just put it all in a bin somewhere. There are WAY too many FMLs these days where all they needed was a little common sense and it never would've happened. But anyways, YDI for not using your lil noggin.

Yes, Maths. A lot of people say Maths instead of Math. They say it here in England and apparently wherever the OP lives. It must be nice for people to be so ignorant about other languages.

In England we say 'maths', I suppose as a way of abbreviating 'mathematics', it's not a big deal really, is it?

And a note to add to my previous post: There was an AMAZING invention called the ONLINE TEXTBOOK. Although this would only recover the textbook part of your little let's-burn-math session. Your papers and notes...you could have scanned them all onto your computer and save it all into neat, organized folders. And you also could have sold the textbooks (if they were left in a good condition). You burned books containing plastic...CANCER x_x

Probably because they buy so little foreign TV, choosing instead to copy it into their own version Whereas we buy theirs and hear their idiosincracies of language and so understand and don't question them.

I thought that after "Fahrenheit 451" and the Nazis that you'd realize that things don't usually turn out well for the book-burners. YDI, you stupid fascist.

Guess the op needs a refresher in history too...

why has this become a maths & english argument?
BeautifulColours 0
Because some did not realise that there are variations of the word "mathematics". Some places they call it math, in others they call it maths.
