HBM is your highschool does you highschool have different levels of courses?
This made me lol.
How many here know what the actual answer is though? My prof showed a video from Harvard's commencement where 21/23 randomly selected people got it wrong.
I had to think about it for a second before I realized that I did know, and that you'd have to be stupid not to know by the time you're in college.
Normally I don't find other's reading skills to be too egregious, and even the following example I'm about to relay I don't mind too much, but the fact that this was a class where pretty much everyone is an English major didn't help. One girl was asked to read a passage from Oliver Twist, and she had no fluidity in her prose (e.g. not pausing for commas, periods, semi-colons), and she misdispronounced a few words here and there. Granted, they're not words that the average person may know how to pronounce with ease, but she's an English major.
