'Teacher lost it': Student realizes he can get 100% on the final exam through extra credit alone, maliciously complies, infuriates teacher

Teachers should be careful when assigning extra credit. They just might get exactly what they asked for…

There will always be students in this world who work hard, who complete every assignment to the best of their ability, and who impress their teachers to no end. And then there are the students who don't work hard but who work smart. This Redditor certainly falls into the latter category. He also had a gift for memorization. So when his English teacher said that students would receive points for every memorized line of the poem "The Rhyme of the Ancient Mariner" regurgitated on the back of their final exam, OP took this as a challenge. Not only did he memorize all 400 lines of said poem, but he also realized that in doing so, he would receive 100% on the final exam without actually having to complete any essays on the actual test. You can just guess what happened next.
