Roommate, Exams, Students and Work: Roommates from hell

Roommates from hell

By Failure - 09/11/2009 22:13 - United States

Today, I was taking a final test online that would account for 65% of my final grade, for which I'd worked extremely hard. I had one submission for the test, and my roommate thought it would be funny to click the "Submit All" Button while I was getting a glass of water. I got a 13%. FML

Today, I tried to turn in a final exam online. When I went to check if it had been submitted Blackboard told me it did. My grade told a different story. FML

Classic rookie mistake

Today, I was taking a test and thought I was doing great until I realized I was writing all my answers on the question paper, not the answer sheet. By the time I noticed, there were only five minutes left. FML

Today, I got my results on a recent, important midterm. During the exam, I'd noticed my instructor had accidentally left an answers page in the test packet, so being honest, I didn't look at them. It turns out she did it on purpose to help us pass. I failed. FML

Today, I took my last final on a Scantron sheet with 200 multiple choice questions, with seconds to spare. When I finished the last question, I saw I had another bubble to fill in and I didn't know where I screwed up. FML

Today, I took a major test, worth half my grade, not realizing that there were questions on the back of the sheet. FML

Today I woke up feeling good and ready for my online business class final, only to find that it had somehow been submitted and graded with a zero. FML

Today, I went to check my grade, which was posted for an essay for my comp 1 class. I got a zero. I was devastated only to find out I never actually clicked the submit document button. My grade dropped 20 points. FML

Unfair failing

By Mistakes were made - 24/10/2022 23:00 - United States

Today, while I was taking a test in class, there was a question that had everyone stumped. After what seemed like forever, the teacher finally noticed and said he'd typed the question wrong. I spent more than half the time I had to complete the test on a question that wasn't even written correctly. Yes, I failed. FML

Today, I took a final for my law class. As I was taking the test, I noticed the girl on my left copying off me. I wrote all the wrong answers on my sheet while writing the correct answers on my desk hoping she would copy the wrong answers down. I forgot to write the correct answers on my test. FML

As opposed to 12 years in Azkaban for murdering your best friends? is that what happened, James and Lily submitted your online Potions test and Snape wouldn't let you make it up?

Submissions like these are why the reason the OP should have the option to drop dox on the person that wronged them, and once a submission gets voted up a certain percentage, those dox are automatically released, so that the internet can ruin those peoples' lives. Basically, it'd be a hybrid of FML and the whole Anonymous/"personal army" thing.

This makes me furious that your roommate could be such an arsehole. Im currently studying myself and I know the effort required to learn the material including the time to attend lectures/tutorials etc and let me tell you every mark helps! OP hopefully by explaining your situation to the professor you can retake the test. If not and you fail the subjectunit because of your roommate, demand that they pay the fees for you to redo the course again. And dont let up til they cough the money up.
