^ I love those. Especially if they're within a paragraph of instructions at the beginning of the test. My physics teacher loved to do that to see whether his students read the instructions or not. =]

My high school english teacher gave us a piece of paper with a number of instructions that told us to do some pretty bizarre things. When she gave it to us, she said plainly with no emphasis to read all of the instructions first, so of course no one did. They went in order from the first instruction to the last - and the last thing on the sheet said to write your name and ignore everything else. So by the time most people got to that they had already done things like standing up and turning around in circles and saying in a loud voice "I DID NOT READ THE INSTRUCTIONS" (I think that was number 8).

^ LOL I did one of those on April Fools' Day in elementary school. I fell for it. But one of my high school home ec teachers did it once and I had great fun watching people yell as they got to the appropriate step XD.

Haha Joanne, the favourite colour question. If you hadn't told me I would have had NO IDEA.

Ahh, yes, I remember in elementary school when the directions would say that you only had to write your name and not complete all the problems. And then everyone would sit there and do the entire quiz. I wish they would do things like that in college.
