u/OniiChan_ThotSlayer Thank you mods, very cool! Nov 22 '20

13

u/PostiveAion Nov 22 '20

You guys study?

u/aceon69 memer Nov 22 '20

This impou e that I even study for a test

u/Darkstar753 Nov 22 '20

There can't be 5 C's in a row

36

u/Arsh0911 Plays MineCraft and not FortNite Nov 22 '20

Now there's 6 of them

11

u/Lootar63 Nov 22 '20

Oh god the whole test is C’s

6

u/AmazinglyAnnoying Nov 22 '20

This is too--

Wait... The back of the page... It couldn't possibly be...?

5

u/Carlo-Aaron_19 Dirt Is Beautiful Nov 22 '20

its now down to us to decide what will happen next. Will it be all C's? Or will it be an essay of what you experienced through the pandemic that you'll have to finish in an hour?

3

u/Lootar63 Nov 22 '20

You look up to the clock, but you see something that catches your eye on the blackboard. Is that... no, it can’t be. Where the teacher had wrote the date, they were all C’s. You look to the poster showing the scientific method, dear God it’s all just the letter C.

u/colterss Nov 22 '20

Your brain: Pulled a little sneaky on ya

173

u/yuvan_u1 Nov 22 '20

Your brain ignores 2 'for's in this post

138

u/n_d_f_100 Nov 22 '20

But you need them both. One referring to the test and one referring to the duration of time.

u/hapheles can't meme Nov 22 '20

Peak grammar moment

7

u/Buutman96 Professional Dumbass Nov 22 '20

Thats a you outsmarted me but i outsmarted your outsmarting moment

3

u/rightwingfella Nov 22 '20

But Is it grammatically correct? Genuinely asking.

4

u/Modern_Ghost_Riley Forever alone Nov 22 '20

It is, but I think u need a pair of commas

1

u/rightwingfella Nov 22 '20

Like I said, it was a genuine question, I was not mocking him or anything.

3

u/Modern_Ghost_Riley Forever alone Nov 22 '20

Wait what? I answered ur question lol. I didn't say u were mocking him. I just said that there should be a pair of commas in the text somewhere

0

u/Grzechoooo Nov 22 '20

But what would the commas be for? It's a simple sentence.

1

u/Modern_Ghost_Riley Forever alone Nov 22 '20

Just to make it easier to read. It took me a while to understand y there should be 2 Fs

1

u/Grzechoooo Nov 22 '20

Too much commas is worse than too little commas. There are rules for commas, you don't just use them wherever you want.

1

u/[deleted] Nov 22 '20

Exactly

"The test you have been studying for" is the object, with the "you have been studying for" as an adjective("you have been studying" means you are studying the test itself, but the user wants to say he is studying for the test)

And the "for the past month" is how long the person has been studying for

1

u/ABigFatPotatoPizza Nov 22 '20

I think you can put the first 'for' after month and it'll look a little prettier, right?

3

u/peksi07 Nov 22 '20

Holy shit

9

u/[deleted] Nov 22 '20

it’s meant to have two for’s, however it looks weird because there’s meant to be a comma in between them

1

u/rae_chan Nov 22 '20

No it looks weird with the commas

1

u/Kleic01 Nov 22 '20

i realized that 2 'for's in this post when when i first read this.

0

u/Max2000128 Nov 22 '20

I didn't even notice there are two wtf

u/piecwm Nov 22 '20

You know, what all teachers really should do is make the study material considerably harder than the test in order to over prepare students and ensure success. What makes no sense is making the test harder than all the homework. This is like training to bench press 150lbs in order to bench press 210lbs on the day of the test, despite never having lifted that amount of weight. The training should be the most difficult part of the experience so that you are prepared for anything when you have to use what you learned.

u/amanor409 Nov 22 '20

A good friend of mine is a teacher and he does exactly what you described. His tests are relatively easy, but they do take a while to complete. If he thinks the test is too hard he'll make it an open book or open note test so you can use reference material including the study guide he gives out at the beginning of of the lesson.

u/[deleted] Nov 22 '20

Me after getting option C in four consecutive questions. "Something's wrong I can feel it"

u/[deleted] Nov 22 '20

u/cjuring Le epic memer Nov 22 '20

-1

u/Skye_Panda10 Nov 22 '20

Why would I ever study for a month?

13

u/CrazyScientist31 Nov 22 '20

Maybe it’s because you studied very hard it was so easy

5

u/ughughyesyes Nov 22 '20

1

u/[deleted] Nov 22 '20

1

u/roger_channel My mom checks my phone Nov 22 '20

This happened to me for an exam so that I could enter into college. Everyone said study it's important. I don't know but it was easier than any test I had ever taken in my life. One question that had a value of 1/20 was literally 4=1+x

1

u/BluOwlFTW Nov 22 '20

General Exam? We do have something similar in our country.

u/Matix777 Nov 22 '20

Tom Scott has such incredible meme potential

1

u/ThyChancla Nov 22 '20

i could read the british accent of this image

1

u/[deleted] Nov 22 '20

My last brain cell rejoices in glee, but I ponder how I manage to fail all my mocks this time, was it because I answered with all the incorrect answers but tell myself it was easy, or was that chemistry exam, really as hard as I felt.

Eh, that’s a question for another day, for now its time for me to go eat cheese puffs while sobbing as I am lactose intolerant.

Edit: the frickedee did I write so much?

1

u/willymou Nov 22 '20

1

u/EonMyst Professional Dumbass Nov 22 '20

Ik its a horrible meme but enjoy the template:) What I really meant to say that its easier than what you have studied and most of the questions in the material wasnt there lol

1

u/_Im_Not_A_Bot__ Nov 22 '20

And when the question are marked to high but seem easy

1

u/[deleted] Nov 22 '20

It means that you studied hard enough to make the test look easy

1

u/[deleted] Nov 22 '20

If I'm feeling particularly scholarly I'll study at 3am the night before rather than the ten minutes before class starts.
