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.

They haven't bothered me since though. Now my only problem is those damn Devry recruiters.
