A common error is to forget to change the limits as well as the function of x in the integration. This leads to the error you describe.

The clue was the fact that his answer was "completely wrong" and he was surprised.

In my experience, assuming a reasonably competent candidate, the most common cause of "completely wrong" with substitution questions is forgetting to change limits.
