Richard has done a hilarious job by illustrating this book. We all have faced it. THE EXAMS! The big day for some, the doomsday for others. And we all have got grades varying from A to F though I believe there would be less A’s and more F’s (atleast it’s there in my case).
This book is highly recommended for teenagers of age group 14-17, though I read it yesterday at the age of twenty but then I believe there is no age to read and write. If you are above the age limit I recommended, then it will remind the days of your “exam-hood”!
The book is a short collection including very real and very wrong (but laugh out loud hilarious) answers in a variety of subjects, including Chemistry, Biology, History, Math, English, and more. The student’s answers will have you chuckling at their wittiness and cleverness that I would have marked as correct if I was their teacher.
The following excerpts are from the book:
Question:Give a brief explanation of the meaning of the term “hard water.”
Answer:Ice
Question:What is the highest frequency noise that a human can register?
Answer:Mariah Carey
Question: Describe what is meant by “forgetting.”
Answer: I can’t remember
It’s a quick, light, hilarious to read, full of witty answers. I would recommend you to carefully go through the maths section, it’s most hilarious!
I’ve got a book like this called Tests. I dip into it when I want cheering up.
q. what is the layerjust under the earth’s crust called?
a. the filling.
Haha!
These kind of books are always cheerful 🙂
