'I never learned this, just fail me': 20+ AP test proctors who got the funniest papers to grade

Standardized testing is no fun for students, and yet every year, great importance is heaped upon these tests. It takes time away from actual learning, since teachers are forced to teach to the test instead of highlighting information they want their students to learn. No one really likes these tests, but many kids take AP tests get into colleges or to gain college credits.

When I was in high school, our school introduced a new standardized test, even though we already had a few others we also needed to take. Our teachers explained to the students that this new test did not count for each student. Instead, it was to assess how well the school was doing. One student clarified: if we failed this test, there was no penalty for doing so, and it wouldn't affect students' grades or college applications? The teachers answered no, and you could see the color drain from their faces as they realized, in front of an entire cafeteria of 8th graders, that not one student was going to take this test seriously. Most of us slept through the test after checking the boxes randomly. The teachers were irate, but there was little they could do to rally morale.

These AP graders shared the funniest things they've ever graded, like one person who drew some detailed Superman logos, or others who begged the grader to pass them. Apparently, a lot of people slip money to the graders, which they're not allowed to accept. You can check the whole thing out below.
