I dunno, I've written some real crap in exams before and still got good passes.  Once I wrote a book report on a book which didn't feature anywhere in the exam and got a B

I actually used an online essay generator in my senior english class for a report on Beowulf.  The essay had nothing whatsoever to do with the book (which I did read, I just wanted to play FFVII rather than write the report).  At some points, paragraphs were duplicated and repeated in succession.

I got a 97%.  My teacher didn't read a single word.  :D

I once got an A on a 300 point essay for my Geography class. It was 37 pages long...and all of it copied, word-for-word, from Microsoft Encarta :D

The person teaching it that semester was the school's wrestling coach, because the usual teacher was on Maternity Leave XD

Stupid jocks, heh heh heh

You guys had it easy. In High school My senior English teacher was given GIVEN a program that check for depuation and check on the web to see if it has been posted up their then give a score base on how much was duplated. That was some major suckage.

Rorin my college has that, but after this quarter I won't have any essay writting classes. (Gotta love COMP SCI.) And the one class I do have to write for this quarter is ENG101 (required class) that is taught by an grad student and there is only 25 of us the class. She reads every word. But writing about FFVII doesn't sound too bad.

My 11th grade english teacher didn't read anything.  He had daily handouts on vocabulary.  I eventually got around to putting in counter-strike map names....symbols....I only got docked it I didn't fill in anything.  In another assigment(a review sheet for some book) I even included answers such as "stupid question" and "?". I actually answered a whole page(3 or 4 questions which were suppose to be short answer questions) with "?".  0 points off :).

I once wrote an instructional Essay on "How-To Shoplift" for a college Lit. class and the teacher gave me an A....and then she was arrested for shoplifting.

I once had a math test where each problem was worth 3 points.  On one question I wrote down "I don't know" as the answer.  The teacher gave me one point.  In the margin of the page she wrote "At least you were honest."
