lol yeah, would be tons of work... it'd probably be like some people's thesis where they knew the prof didn't read it and in the middle wrote a random poem

na, ill just say they all failed to meet the requirements, and the first one that tries to defend it will win.
i did that for a english paper once..I had an introduction, then the rest was "You do not read our papers do you." copy and pasted and formatted into essay form, with a conclusion, and i got an 89%. My friend who did the exact same thing with his, got a 68%. So we showed it to the vice principle and got the teacher in trouble.

rofl. sounds like the naruto exam sorta. xD how naruto, even though he was going to fail passed because he stood up for himself xD
and... bad teacher. :/ i think lots sorta do that tho. they have their "favorite" students who they always give better grades and then less favorites which they give worse grades. and they don't leave any comments why and you wonder if they even look at it. like one girl would write her paper an hour before it was due and get a 99, while I would always have it finished a week ahead and make sure it was the best it could be and get a 80...
but still, you would think they'd at least skim it over.... :/

xD naruto exam was awsome. Everyone using special ninja skillz to cheat
yeah. I can understand having alot of papers to grade, but if your not even going to skim them you could atleast just do check grades or give everyone the same.
you do your papers way earlier then i do mine..I think the only time I had a paper ready atleast a week before it was due was when I forgot when the paper was due so I did it just in case xP
well..less you meant like school weeks, cause sometimes I did papers on weekends and they were due thursday, but thats more cause I was too lazy to remember the book that long..I hated book reports..less we could make fun of all the probelms with it...then there fun..
oh btw, did I ever tell you that I finally found my outsiders book second? XD that book report we were suppose to do in like the sixth grade or something and I lost mine half way threw and just concentrated on the begining of the book for my report? Turns out the book somehow ended up in that trunk my mom kept by the couch..we emptied it out one of the times we moved down here and found it..like..7 or 8 years after the fact xP
intros and onclusions make the paper? xD

yeah, i know lots of teachers who did that with checks. or... once the math teacher was too lazy to grade everything so he'd grade one random problem. then if you did everything and got that problem fine, you'd get a 5/5. got the problem wrong a 4/5, but finished everything. didn't finish it 3/5
finding a book years later xD hilarious.
and.. that would be your profs argument for giving you a higher score than your friend. xD

so to get a A i'd have to actully have a body? xP
id like that math teacher xP
one of my teachers kinda did that only more annoying. He would have us do like 20-40 probelms, then at the start of class say he wants "probalm 18, 35, and 3" coppied to a piece of paper. so if you happened to skip those cause you didnt understand something in them you were screwed evne if you did theo thers perfect.

no, was saying that your prof only looked at the intros and conclusions and that's what he graded or maybe just the intros since you said that's all you actually wrote so your better intro got a higher grade than your friends
makes me glad to be done with that hmm yes

yupyup, figuring out what they liked becomes rather annoying and can result in low grades when you first start the class
hmm, also thinking about it, people do remember the intros and conclusions more than the body which is described psychologically as the primacy and recency effect where the start and end are the parts that stick and the stuff in the middle gets forgotten.

does that just mean she remembered my topic sentence and last period instead of my full intro? lol
i kinda like writting papers though <.< I wish i could take two more englishes and have them count toward my math credits..actully make that four more englishes, i hate history too

only if all she read was the intro but then she'd remember the first and last sentence but intros are only 3 to 5 so...
lol, can see replacing history with english since often in english you get a lot of history
