Writing a Whole Page in Exam Just to Hide the Fact That You Don’t Know the Answer

Writing a Whole Page in Exam Just to Hide the Fact That You Don’t Know the Answer
Because if they can’t find your mistake…
maybe they’ll just pass you out of confusion. :weary_face:

My thought process during exams:
“I don’t know the answer…”
“But what if I just… write everything I do know and hope they get tired?”
“Let me draw a diagram to make it look serious.”
Throws in keywords from the question for aesthetic
Ends with ‘etc.’ to sound wise

What the page looks like:
Intro
Random facts
Bullet points that make no sense
One neatly drawn table
Confidence?


:grimacing: Me after submitting the paper:
“I may not know medicine…
But I do know the art of academic illusion.
