Ha interesting. OK taking this a bit too seriously -- it seems like there should be a better reward than that.
Suppose you actually know all the answers on the test, and you know you know them. You have two choices:
1) Mark them all correctly
2) Mark them all incorrectly, based on your knowledge of the correct answers
There's no incentive for doing #2, because you get an A either way. But if they offered a better reward, like being able to skip the next test with an automatic A, then #2 would look appealing.
- bitL 9y agoIt was more like a badge of honor. When you looked at the results of an exam, it was a few As, then a bit more Bs, then bit more Cs etc. then a huge number of Fs (fail) and at the very bottom were 1-2 As of those crazy people that took the "all wrong" option. It was the most difficult university of one of EU countries, so those exams weren't trivial and designed to kick most students out. When you got such an "inverse A", it was something to brag about in a pub later as just one correct answer would make you fail the exam...
