Being rude to get a pass

There has been much talk of how the exams in this country have changed for better to the extent that the pass rates just keep getting better year after year. But there are those who are saying that the exams are a lot easier these days, which sort of takes away the good work which all of the students have done to get to this stage.

But to back this up there is this particularly strange event which could make more believe that the current exam system is flawed in some way and should be changed to that reflects the needs of today.

One student in an English exam answered only one question and got a C, the question was “Describe the room that you are in?” and the student answered with two words, the first beginning with and “F” and the second was “Off” but as it was in the right context, he got the maximum score!
