Ah, in that case you should indeed not say the lines or write anything.

I never had a "test" like this, i wonder why they even do this at schools... just a silly/stupid logic game... If i make a test i expect the hard part/judgment to be in the questions, not in the instructions... If i would read instructions like that on a test i would think to myself "Lolz, who fucked up writing that" and continue with the questions (until i realize the questions don't make sense either ).

Hah . Well, teachers don't like their students and like playing mind games with them I guess

My mom made me do this exact test 2 years ago (well it was french). The logic behind the test is simple. It should say "Read all the instructions carefully before acting" or something along those lines, saying don't do anything yet. Most people will still do something, and look like idiots when the reach the bottom.

It's a rather funny thing to do to people and see their reaction when the get to the bottom realizing they did a whole bunch of calculating and speaking and etc for absolutely nothing.

I would say, I inferred that by 'reading', we are also answering those questions.

If we just needed to read the questions then would you need to talk out those words?

imho (and strange logic) I would say you were absolutely correct and the teacher not

I agree with cookie. If you were supposed to just read the lines and not do what they say then you can only get 100% by not saying "i am doing good" and "I have completed this exactly and correctly", as they are steps and you only need to read them not do them, as you already pointed out sam.

So i would say your teacher is wrong, and needs to accept that (s)he is wrong. Teachers don't like being proved wrong. but you should just knows she is wrong and that you didn't need to be kept behind as you did nothing wrong.




cookie, i don't think it's strange logic. it seems just common sense in a way, and normal logic. but blah

we did this in my primary school [uk - actual age : 10] and i passed with flying colours
