the pinjockey 0 Report post Posted March 4, 2004 It isn't D, dummy. Obviously it is a trick question, because the right answer isn't on there. If a field goal is 2 points, then a 3-pt field goal is worth three field goals, so 2 x 3 = 7. And 7 is not an option. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Gert T 0 Report post Posted March 4, 2004 I can't believe Harrick Jr. tried to fool those guys by putting 64 and 65 for the "how many teams are in the NCAA Tourney In fairness at my school I took a team & individual sports final that consisted of 10 softball questions: Define a ball Define a strike Name all nine positions How many people play the field in recreation softball? Name the different ways you can get out. There were a few others I do not remember, but the funniest was right before the test, some guy asked the professor if we had to know the difference in distance between the pitcher's mound and home plate in college vs. rec softball. Her response: "There won't be any question that hard." Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
yankovic fan 0 Report post Posted March 5, 2004 I had a professor in college who would give us 44 question exams and to make it a 45 question test he's have: #45 The answer is A A. He wouldn't have any other choices on it either. Heck my last semester before college, I had this music professor for 2 seperate classes. He hurt his knee the day before the first final. He couldn't make it in to give the exam. So the department secretary walks in, passes a roll sheet, and said "everyone that signed it, gets a 100% on the exam." That worked out great b/c I needed a 100% to get an A for the course. And then in the other class I had for him, he was able to make it later in the week for the other final. Thing is there was a listening section worth 40% of the test, but the equipment was in the back of the classroom and he couldn't manuever through the 80 something desks with his crutches. And since student aren't allowed to touch the equipment, and it was a 7:30 class, no one else could do it. He spotted us the 40% for that test. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

This way, no one would get a 100% on the exam since everyone would THINK it was ego-centric when he wasn't the right answer. See! He was crafty! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
