In a mock Biology paper, the question was 'Why was the importance of Mendel's discovery not realised until after his death?'

I put 'because he was a monk'.
I got no marks for that.

AS Physics last year had something along the lines of "Why did **** name the unit horsepower?" I answered, because a horse told him about it. At the time I thought that a silly question needed an equally silly answer.

i wrote the word 'awks' in my drama exam
also wrote on the front 'excuse the words not sitting on the line my eyes kept going blurry'

to be fair, it was a mock.

I didn't write any stupid answers, but I always felt that examiners would be happy if I drew nice pictures everywhere and then they'd feel like they had to give me good marks, for example there was a sled in one of my GCSE science exams and I turned it in to a full on Santa's sleigh, I drew reindeer and Santa in the back with loads of presents. In another one there was a butterfly or a moth and I turned it into an evil death bat.
It was very amusing because I could see everyone around me looking. Tbh this was mostly in the science exams because they had the best pictures.
I got A's in science, still to this day I think it's because of my drawings.

I had a Business Studies A2 exam on the 26th, and we had a question on quantifiable and unquantifiable risk. (risks you can plan for, risks you cannot plan for)
Our paper was on Kingfisher (B&Q, Comet, companies like that). Basically for the unquantifiable risk (can't plan for), I wrote that terrorists could raid the store and blow up all remaining stock.
Bad news? I am still awaiting the results.

my cousins GCSE bio exam:
question: what is pollination?
her answer: pollination is what smart people say instead of plant sex

In business studies, we were asked to explain the adv+disadv of minimum wage.

For disadvantages, I said that increase pay may not motivate them to work, as minimum wage workers live in deprived areas where they face more important issues than pay such as antisocial behavior in their neighbourhood.

Got 91/100 for that exam

I wrote a story about a perverted, impotent gymnast who got sexual thrills from bending at dangerous degrees for my English GCSE exam LMAO

Most of my stupid answers are giving during RS exams, which I find perfectly justifiable :P

Most of my answers start with "Only God has the right to..." (give life, take it away, etc. etc.). In my exam last year, I answered the question: 'Why do Christians view homosexuality as a sin?' with: 'Only God has the right to be gay.' I ended up comparing God with Dumbledore, pondering over the idea that JK Rowling wrote Dumbledore as a representation of God, explaining how the magical element was comparable to God's power and his willingness to sacrifice Harry for the greater good was an example of Christian teachings. I was given a B!

I couldn't remember how to solve a problem in a Maths exam last month and so I did it both of the ways I thought to be correct and wrote a note to the examiner, saying "Please just mark the correct working out and ignore the wrong parts." I'm still waiting to see if they agree to do so.

We had a Physics GCSE exam and my friend wrote 'You tell me' for an answer... sadly I'm too much of a - well, could say geek/nerd but I hate those words - erm, academic to write anything dumb or amusing!

better than leaving it blank to be fair.

God, what these poor examiners must think when they read this stuff
