funny stories of exams/exam halls/school

  • I have a number of stories from high school since university is boring af and nothing exciting ever happens. These stories are all true. I'm pretty sure I've experienced more weird shit than most people here.

    • Driver's education exam: Fire drill during it, we come back and then there are only 10 minutes of class till dismissal. Everyone had to stop doing their exams and do fire drill evacuation and had 10 minutes to finish, regardless of their progress. I passed with an 80.

    • Teacher caused fire alarms to go off by burning popcorn, causing the fire department to come and the school had to be evacuated. The school smelt like burnt popcorn for the rest of the day.

    • City water main broke by our school, causing us to be dismissed early since we no longer had running water.

    • School was put into a shelter in place and the police were called after a student assaulted another with a boxcutter knife in one of the men's restrooms (there were injuries) they sneaked into school. The offender was arrested and was never seen again.

    • Bus driver forgot my bus stop on the way home and I had to go the entire route before being dropped home.

    • Students had sex in the back of the bus on the way home. (Best part: It's the bus I ride so I was completely unaware of it.)

    • Someone took a shit in one of the urinals. Everyone knew who it was as well. No punishments were handed out for this.

    • I got electrocuted when I plugged in a laptop charger and something in it blew up, causing some sparks, a quite loud popping sound, the electric smell and some smoke during lunch. Surprisingly nobody saw any of this despite the fact I was in a classroom that had a teacher and some students in it. My left arm was numb for the rest of the day.

    • Some weird kid was looking at guns and shit online during class. Everyone, including myself who was sitting near him, was on edge.

    • One time it snowed and my bus never showed up. (It was late as fuck.) I simply called the school bus company and they sent a large school bus to pick me up from my stop and take me to school. (Imagine having an entire bus all to yourself.) Everyone else got to school late, except me.

    • One time the bus was late to my stop because some student had to shit so bad that the bus stopped at a diner so they can run in and use the restroom.

    • A student once vomited a few seats behind me on the bus.

    • My school always had a problem with wasps so every time wasps would fly around in the classroom, everyone would freak out and run to one side of the room when the wasp got low by peoples' heads.

    • While waiting for the school bus, some methheads were at my bus stop and it was pouring and raining so I couldn't wait under the bus shelter. These same people tried asking me things that made me uncomfortable af and approaching me so I came very close to spraying them with the mace that I carried. After that day I had my stop moved closer to my home.

    • Kids have watched porn in the middle of class. Since they sat in the front row, everyone behind them saw it. Thankfully the volume was off or they would of been in deep shit.

    • Someone tried to bribe me $50 to take an online test for them because I had better grades in the class. Ironically, it was for a personal finance class.

    • Senior year, some teachers had a massive prank war where they'd play antics on each other. The end result of this was one class being covered in Christmas decorations (in May!) and another was covered in printed turtle clipart and had furniture and fixtures covered in saran wrap along with rubber ducks placed there which became highly coveted status symbols if you happened to get or find one following this.

    • My laptop broke. The school gave me an IBM thinkpad laptop that was formerly a faculty computer. It was supposed to be temporary. The school forgot I was given it (I never signed any sort of papers before receiving it so no record of it being 'loaned' to me exists.) I reset the admin account password with a USB stick I made, thus making me administrator on it, and managed to find some old lesson plans for AP World History. I never took the class but I had lessons that were only a year old and probably recycled yearly. The best part is I kept the computer since they forgot I even was given it. I've since been graduated and I have very portable laptop that is very useful free of charge.

    This has actually happened in my school, but it was set off by year 7s/grade 6 burning popcorn.

    My school is actually dead compared to everyone else’s 💀

  • My high school (note for Americans, we attend it between age 14-19, depending on your birth month) has plenty of small stories, here are some of the most memorable moments from my time:

    • The main breaker in the transformer room failed one evening. Since nothing but the diesel-powered emergency circuit worked until the electrical company replaced the faulty part, all students were sent home when they showed up the morning after.

    • When a very popular biology teacher's last day of school came, the students brought a sort of throne / sedan chair, made her sit on it and carried her around while a band was playing The Imperial March from Star Wars.

    • I accidentally passed a wrong note to my classmates during preparations for the finals. Nothing major, just a terminology issue. The poor teacher was going crazy as everybody replied the same during the oral exam. I think I broke his brain when I gave a suspiciously specific justification, making him realise I was the source. I still passed with full marks.

  • pandemic caused school to be repeatedly delayed until the end of the year

    Code
    teacher: we are going to take online classes for 2 weeks  
    *2 weeks later*  
    teacher: 2 more weeks  
    *2 more weeks later*  
    teacher: just 2 more  
    *"just 2 more" weeks later*  
    teacher: ok i think we're gonna be closing the school for the rest of the school year  


  • when my brother was on a school trip he and his friends lit a fire inside their cabin
