PSYC272 Exam Plagued By Beautiful Mayhem

At one point or another we’ve all sat in that 60-person lecture without a paddle, trying to untie the knot in our stomachs while exams are passed out. We look deep into our TA's eyes and pray for a miracle, or maybe an answer key.

Turns out believing is seeing, because last week one TA printed out the answer key instead of the actual exam and handed it out to the whole class. Our source says the TAs and Prof tried to frantically recollect the answer key and print the real exam, but the students were NOT impressed.

“This isn’t fair!” They argued from their seats. And wouldn’t you know it, the whole class just got to leave. Maybe this was some Evolutionary Psych technique, or maybe the TA just made an error like humans tend to do. Regardless, we can only hope our exams pan this way, and that this time no one will notice.
