I think it was the time where I had an accounting assignment that I spent four hours trying to balance and I finally did. However, once I did, I forgot to put the double line under the total, which is points off. I would have gotten a perfect grade had I remembered. I think my mind snapped from the realization. I started laughing in a manner that would put the Joker to shame. A close second would be when I forgot the "n" in organism for a biology assignment. Have you had any really embarrassing blunders on your assignments for school? Looking forward to reading your responses.

I remember mine so vividly. It was a math test in college. Applied Calculus. I studied a lot for the test. Was so prepared. Zipped through the test before anyone else. Got the test back a week later...... 2 pages completely blank. I did the test so fast I must have completely missed those 2 pages. At least I got a perfecto on the rest! :D

Ouch, it was a good thing you got everything right on the rest of the test. I have missed questions before on the test, but never entire pages. Still, there are times where I slap myself for missing questions, because that's the difference between an "A" and a "B" a lot of the time. Very frustrating to say the least.

I accidentally hit post and I didn't say everything I wanted to. Anyway, that is bad enough for a question now and then, but two pages. Thank you for your response, it is much appreciated and it contributed to the topic well. Have a nice day and thanks.

The same thing has happened to me a couple of times. It is very easy to look at the problem wrongly. When I see the solution, it does make an extraordinary amount of sense. Thank you for your response. It is much appreciated and it contributed to the topic well. Have a nice day and thanks.
