Over the years, exam questions only seemed to get harder and harder.
In fact, it’s got to a point where I highly doubt my theoretical capabilities should my children ask me for help.
“Pa, how to do this ah?”
“Aiyo, so easy also don’t know. Come, let your daddy teach you.”
15 minutes later…
“Pa, why so long? Need submit tomorrow one leh!”
“Shuddup la son. Your lao pei how long never use brain liao. Need some time to squeeze the juice out right. Ta ma de **** **** *** ** ** *** ****!”
“Walao you damn useless leh Pa. Jie, you know how to do this?”
“Lemme see… what the heck, so easy. Just do this, add that, cross here and you get the answer liao what.”
“But Pa take very long leh…”
“You two shut up. Go to bed. No excuses. I’m officially banning you two from any outdoor activities till you’re 65. Goodnight.”
Yeah, sounds about right.
A P2 Science Question got adults scratching their heads
Anyways, there’s yet another baffling school question on the market that no fully qualified adult seems capable of handling. This time, it’s a P2 Science question.
Question: “Observe the father and mother’s physical traits in the picture, then draw the child’s face based on your imagination.”
What’s this… fortune telling ah? I never knew that they taught fortune telling nowadays.
And how do the teachers grade the question, exactly?
No, not fortune telling. It’s creativity.
According to the President of National Union of Head of Schools Malaysia, Wong Shee Fatt, the objective of the question was to boost creativity.
This means that pupils can draw whatever they want based solely on their imagination, and still get full marks for the question. And by whatever, I mean literally whatever. They could draw a hot dog nestled in a bun for all we know and still get correct.
This question also aims to “let children learn about genetics through a fun and interesting way”, Wong said. Aside from more advanced thinking skills, modern education also “stresses on the ability of children to think creatively and critically.”
For example, the child in the question “doesn’t have to resemble the parents only, because he/she may resemble the grandparents”, he explained. “This is the beauty of genetics and the question will also challenge the teachers’ ability to guide the pupils.”
Well, can’t deny that, Mr Union President. Besides, I’m sure it would be fun for the teachers too. Could only imagine the giggles that erupted in the office that day.
Wouldn’t be surprised if someone drew a hot dog too, seeing how kids are nowadays…
Tch tch…
Incidentally, if you’re curious about the question my future self was struggling so hard with at the start, it’s this one:
230 – 220 x 0.5 = ?
As unlikely as it seems, the answer’s actually 5!
Good luck 😉
