It was the final examination for
an introductory English
course at the local university. Like many such freshman
courses, it was designed to weed out (Çå³ý£©new
students, having over 700 students in the class! The examination was two
hours long, and exam booklets were provided.
The professor was very strict and told the class that any exam that was not
on his desk in exactly two hours would not be accepted and the student would
fail. 1/2 hour into the exam, a student came rushing in and asked the
professor for an exam booklet.
"You're not going to have time to finish this," the professor
stated sarcastically as he handed the student a booklet.
"Yes I will," replied the student.
He then took a seat and began writing. After two hours, the professor called
for the exams, and the students filed up and handed them in. All except the
late student, who continued writing. 1/2 hour later, the last student came
up to the professor who was sitting at his desk preparing for his next
class. He attempted to put his exam on the stack of exam booklets already
there.
"No you don't, I'm not going to accept that. It's late."
The student looked incredulous and angry. "Do you know WHO I am?"
"No, as a matter of fact I don't," replied the professor with an
air of sarcasm in his voice.
"Are You sure that you don't know WHO I am?!" the student asked
again.
"No, and I don't care." replied the professor with an air of
superiority. "Good," replied the student, who quickly lifted
the stack of completed exams, stuffed his in the middle, and walked out of
the room.
