Exam Creation

While taking a psychology course in college, the teacher had a habit of putting the following questions on an exam: "Ask yourself a question and answer it." Being a math major, I asked myself "Solve the following differential equation [* equation deleted *] under the following conditions [* conditions deleted *]" and proceeded to solve it.

The next day I stopped by the math office to see one of the profs. He told me "Go away, I'm stuck grading your stupid psych. exam". I got full credit, and the psych prof. never put that question on an exam again.
