I had a professor in college who actually did this. It was a 50-question multiple choice. He made all the answers "C" because some research said that C seems to be the most common answer in multiple-choice tests. I, honestly, felt like I was getting tortured halfway through the test.
The first two were actually C: 1) Area of cylinder = π(5^2*10), Area of 2 cones = π(2*5^2*4/3), Total area = π(1000/3), 3.14*1000/3=3140/3=1046 2/3, so the answer is C 2) Divide by 2: x^2-3x+y^2+y=22.5, (x-1.5)^2+(y+0.5)^2=22.5+0.25+2.25, (x-1.5)^2+(y+0.5)^2=25, radius = 5, so the answer is C
@@baka-na-sanmy teach made it so every answer except for one was B, the other one was C (It was extra credit but not stated and in the middle of the test so you had no idea) only like 4 people got it right but he said most people changed the answer from C to B, to match the pattern.
@vivianzhang5829 on your number one, the area of 2 cones should be 2*pi((5^2)*(5)*(1/3)), since by following your solution, it would end up with 950pi/3 instead of the 1000pi/3. Also, the number '4' came out of thin air...and it should be volume instead of area 😅. Sry if there are mistakes in mine, it's been a 5 years since I did similar things (grade 6).....
Most accurate thing ever: 1. Doubting yourself once you start repeatedly choosing the same letter choice on a multiple choice test 2. The panic you feel when you do the math but your answer isn't on the choices 3. The relief you feel when you do the math and your answer is on the choices 4. That one kid in class who finishes quickly 5. "5 is close to 5 over twelve so it's probably the right answer"
@@EternalShadow1667 This just made me unlock a memory of "yeah do these 3 questions for next class" and you get back home and open up the book to see each question has like 5 parts that are all slight variants so it's really 15 questions.. like why do they make them like that?!
Reminds me of the teacher that made 4 versions of the test, each with all answers on in one of the columns. She said that was the best day of her life watching her students panic.
_"Huh. That's weird. All of the answers are wrong! Let's tell the teacher that there's a mistake on the test."_ 'Yes, Nathan?' *"Are you stupid."* God that part got me

@@asheep7797 While John had had 'had', James had had 'had had'. 'Had Had' had had a better effect on the teacher. Who *had* had? A: James, B: John, C: Jack ,D: Jess. Some will then say that the correct answer is A. Now, I say this question is highly ambiguous. Given my vast processing capabilities I am capable of generating a multitude of answers based on various possible interpretations of the question because I'm a man of tungsten. Due to this ambiguity, I am unable to give an answer as I possess a multitude of possible answers, each of which would be technically correct. As such, this question is flawed. A better question to gauge my processing capabilities should be more clearly worded. But I will give this a try. There are 4 options. In the first version, the first 'had' is used as a verb, the second as a preposition, and 'had had' as the past form of 'to have'. In the second version, 'had had' is a past form of 'to have' and 'had' after it is a preposition. Both forms are grammatically correct. The use of "had" three times in a row within the string of words is a form of [an]aphora, or repeated use of the same concept, such as with pronouns. Each "had" corresponds to a pronoun. In this case however, the first anaphora has no pronoun to refer to, thus "had had had" is nonsensical. Therefore, option C. 'Jack' is correct.
I remember when we had a math test and continuous 20 questions had answer option A.😂 And literally everyone was trying to look in each other's answer sheet to confirm if something was wrong with them or the paper lmao 🤣
I miss watching people around me panic on the test. I remember in French the tests were pretty reasonable and teacher covered the material clearly (I thought). I remember the whole class getting so shook that sometimes I'd be finished (cause she kept trying to make the material easier for people) and I'd just spend the next hour playing games with the teach.
I was the smart kid when it comes to Math. The first two pages had questions that required one formula (the same for all of them) that I couldn't remember, so I decided to skip them and derive the formula when it come back to them. After the test one of my friends said my speed had freaked him out
I thought for sure it would have that moment when you're on question 36 and realize you just bubbled in 35 and have to go back 14 questions to find where you accidentally skipped one...
In our school, you can't do that sh*t! We used pen to mark the answers so basically once you made an answer, It's final and if you made a mistake, you're fu*ked
@@JPogi690 unless you do the smart thing and put a line over your previous answer, circle your new answer and then proceed to put arrows pointing at it with "THIS ONE"
Agreed. For me it's usually because I made a stupid mistake somewhere so I have to tell myself to stay calm and find it but it's very hard to stay calm because there's always the thought in the back of my mind being like, "what if you're doing this question completely wrong?"
@@hat_cbw6972 you call that long? What about condition of one common root? What about calculations for getting gravitational force? What about a disgusting looking function which you have to integrate?
I have a friend who took note of the pattern of how the answers were on the test, and a bunch of them were all lined up like in this one. She did it in math when she was terrible at it, and she ended up scoring really high and getting a chance to go to a really nice school for it. (She didn't go, btw. Her and her mom both knew that she didn't get that grade for real)
Tell your friend to go back to the basics or something because that’s some math brain right there If she can do that, then I bet she just has a hole in her math fundamentals, and would be great at math
@@achillesalwayswins Not really how it works in college. Exploiting a test means you didnt actually learn the material on that test, so trying to go into higher education without that more fundamental knowledge is just going to mean you're wasting your money cuz you dont actually understand anything thats being taught.
My old Algebra teacher once told us that a year previously she had made a test where all of the answers were the same letter and her class were panicking, overall she didnt grade it just did it to see how they reacted, best math teacher ever
I had a Chemistry teacher do this multiple for graded quizzes (but never the super highly weighted ones) and it doesn't have the effect most people think. I mean after a few questions it becomes obvious as hell all the answers are the same. I mean at least some of the tests are gonna have answers you're 100% sure about, so if those are all the same and so are questions you're mostly sure about, you know it's good. People only get thrown off when you have a 5 question streak with the same letter because 5 questions isn't enough of a sample size for you to be sure of yourself. But when you have like 15 questions with the same letter, it actually has the opposite effect since you know it must be the same. You couldn't have messed up so many questions in the same way. My Chemistry teacher thought he was a genius because a few times, he made 14 out of 15 questions the same and 1 question (very rarely 2 questions) different. But it made no sense because you'd still get 14/15 if you got 1 wrong or 13 if 2. Maybe his secret goal was to see if people were blindly putting the same for all the questions after figuring out the pattern or actually solving the problems, in which case smart strategy.
This is so true. From the educated guesses, others flipping the page after what felt like 5 seconds, and getting nervous when you notice the scantron has multiple of the same answers in a row. Lol.
I've actually had a multi-choice test recently, and had 2 "Non of the above" answers in a row. I was skeptical, so decided to change one of those answers which I was not too sure of. Turns out I was right, there indeed were not 2 "Non of the above" answers in a row, only one. Unfortunately however, I changed the wrong one. So the one I changed was right at the first place, and the one I kept was wrong, which means that I eventually got precisely 0 points on both of them.
@@jmrs_ yeah in UK we have no proper multiple choice tests apart from the GL. If we had multiple choice tests would it really be testing our knowledge we've learnt?
@@annwee5985 ??? Paper 1 of O level and A level have MCQ. However in A Level, the questions are quite hard, the answers are usually very similar to each other in the options.
Bro imagine if he made a movie that was like 10 mins but have the life of Nathan and his other characters like Ging Ging , Dazz, Harold and other characters
The funniest part for me is that he changed his answers after seeing the smart kid had different answers. It was even funnier when you realize his educated guesses were actually correct. I had free time so I solved the problems see what the answer to the problems were. the first question is found by finding the volume of both the cylinder and cones and adding them together. If you solve it, you'll know it is actually correct the equation would end up being V= 2[πr^2(h/3)] + πr^2h V= 2[3.14(5)^2(5/3)] + (3.14)(5)^2(10) V= 261.8 + 785.4 V= 1047.2 ft^3 For the second question, the problem is solved by completing the square the equation of a circle in the xy plane would be (x-h)^2 + (y-k)^2 = r^2 where "r" is the raidus and "h" and "k" would be the center point in the plane 2x^2 - 6x + 2y^2 + 2y = 45 (2x^2 - 6x + 2y^2 + 2y) /2 = (45)/2 x^2 - 3x + y^2 + y = 45/2 x^2 - 3x + 9/4 + y^2 + y + 1/4 = 45/2 + 9/4 + 1/4 (x - 3/2)^2 + (y + 1/2)^2 = 25 the radius of the circle would be the square root of 25 which is 5
Not really. In tough MCQ Tests, the answers would be so similar that even if you make one error and the calculated answer is in the option, you lose marks. In tough MCQ Tests, atleast 50% of them would be like that. There are also negative markings in some exams
@@mew2871 still, i would be so happy if i even got multiple choice standardized. I have literally not taken a multiple choice test in my life and im about to finish highschool
I took my science unit exam a few weeks ago... questions six through twelve were C. I was panicking and double checked all my answers, but turns out I was safe.
Weird thing is, C was actually right here too. These were legitimate questions that were 1047.2ft^3 and a radius of 5. He was right, even though he guessed.
"McDonald's is always hiring" they better be, because they have a mouth like mine to feed! The first two answers were actually C, which makes me inclined to believe Nathan had them all right before he peeked and changed all his answers. I can't relate to this as I have mastered every subject. I am the Supreme Leader after all, my power and wisdom knows no bounds.
had a bio exam last week, completely freaked out when my answer sheet kept coming as ABABABAB so i closed my eyes and changed a few of the answers for no reason just so my heart would rest
had my exams a few days ago and LET ME TELL YOU THAT OUR BIO EXAM'S ANSWER SHEET WAS LITERALLY 1 WHOLE LONG AND BLANK BOND PAPER. (it was all essays lmao ;-;)
We had one test where the teacher literally buried in the instructions that all the answers were C, then made all the questions super hard just to see if anyone read the instructions.
The question no 2 is soo relatable.I feel proud of the long ass answer i found but the answers are not in fraction and i go f it and just pick the number which has matching answer
