lol kids only write this kinda stuff because they know their gonna fail?

nawww. most colleges only accept either lang or lit, and i already got all the credit from lang. did half of one essay then wrote "this is sparta" and wrote the word "literature" with a noose hanging down from the L and a guy on it.

crossed everything out, of course.

I am memorizing the lyrics to "Never Gonna Give You Up" so that i can Rick Roll my AP Graders when i write my english language essays on wednesday.

I hope you "Sparta" fans are not taking the AP World History test... What do you call something that is far from fact, but too cheap to be a myth? Hollywood....

@bco09 - Now THAT'S what I'm talking about! Rickroll >>>> Spartan nonsense.

Is anybody planning to use Spartans as examples like on AP Lang's argumentative prompt?

friedrice · 05-13-2008, 04:29 AM

I put:

This is Madness!

No, This is Sparta!

Do you think we will get deducted points?

I saw this whole group on facebook..I think that's from where the OP got this idea..or just referred to it I guess..

has anyone considered the possible risks involved with this.
if graders see the same random message in a bunch of various exams, I could see them thinking that it is some sort of "cheating-ring."

just something i was thinking about while reading this.

haha. my friend tried this, except he had not seen the movie and instead wrote "I AM SPARTA!". so much for being clever...

The test readers cannot count anything that is crossed off... So if you write "this is sparta" and cross it off with one line, the test readers use that in their grade..

But I didn't write that... forgot

I put This is Sparta on the last question of the AP Physics B test.

I crossed it out with one stroke.

I also put an answer for the question but I was pretty sure it was wrong.

Man, I wanted to do this today on my Environment test but forgot to. Bummer.

asdfjkl1 · 05-13-2008, 03:25 PM

I did this. Then, I thanked the grader for taking the time to read my last AP exam. Kind, right?

BCO09, that's hilarious...

Whoa, tennisboy, calm down: a parent just posted a question on a forum. These forums are for everyone. She wasn't at all overbearing, and I think you're making illogical leaps of faith in your assumptions. No need to be hostile

I forgot to do this on my Physics C: E&M test where I completely blanked out on the FRQs and it would've worked out. I still have two tests left, but I don't know if I want to do it when I actually feel confident in the questions.
