"Sid, Imran and Sing-Chong were carrying out to find out whether..."
political correctness, eh?

Also, if it's any kind of competition, like who got the most marks in a test, then 'Jennifer' or 'Imran' always do better than 'Sid'.

That always gets on my nerves. If there's nothing on it then don't put it into the booklet...!

I wrote Tom Lehrer lyrics (in English) on the "blank pages" of a language paper. I hope I got extra credit for it.

Any 'assume' questions in Physics. It may make it easier to assume things but it p's me off.

What's worse is that one's that don't say assume and they just expect you to :p:

It's a moral dilemna!

I always found the GCSE Spanish papers to be of particular interest. They always entailed gruesome stories about spanish life or celebrity events.

In my mock I had to translate an article about John Lennon's assassination and actually wrote down on my paper "Yoko One placed a wreath of flowers on the blood stained pavement"

In the real exam I had an article about how a family were coping after their father was gored by a bull :eyeball:

Cheerful stuff...

the sole reason I got the best in my class for my german mock was because I knew the word for "died"
