50+ Creative Ways To Answer Exam Questions When You Don’t Know The Answer


Some might know all the answers in an exam but most people will struggle with some of the questions.

Some people just draw a blank when they see that test form. They just tense up and crack under pressure. But while they may not know the test answers, they have some other answers.

These people are smart in an entirely different way. They have more of a creativity kind of smart. And they are hilarious. Here is how those people respond to test questions.

1) Match The Answers

All things lead to all things. Well, according to this answer at least. When you can’t choose one… choose them all.

2) Free Press

Having freedom of press is one of the most important things in society. This person doesn’t seem to know that. They think it’s all about the free ironing jobs.

3) How Do You Know What You Know?

Knowing the answers isn’t enough. You need to know how you arrived at that answer. The answer in this case is… math, duh.

Sometimes you win. And sometimes you win and fail. This is one of those times.

6) This Kid Is A Bad Ass

This kid doesn’t go crying to mommy or his teachers. He deals with his own problems. He just gets over it.

7) When Jesus Is Always The Answer

This isn’t going to cut it. Even in Catholic School. Even if you think that Jesus is always the answer.

8) Show Your Thinking

Teachers really need to be more specific. This teacher meant show how your work that solved the problem. But that’s not what was asked.

9) Extra Points For The Ninja

This is an instance where giving a weird answer actually paid off. It seems silly to give such young kids grades in the first place. Especially when you can arbitrarily add points for drawings of cartoon ninjas.

10) Nice Try Kid

Clever… but not that clever. This kid is about four animals off. He also needs to brush up on his math skills.

11) This Kid Is Brilliant

Why do you expect a school age child to answer such a question. Especially one where there isn’t a right or wrong answer. This kid’s response is brilliant.

12) What A Coincidence!

This kid just so happens to know the same words at the teacher does. To be fair, he does know some others. I mean octopus is pretty good.

13) Is This Fight Club Or Science?

Something tells me that this teacher will not be amused. This is a science club. Not fight club.

14) When Kids Are Smarter Than Teachers

Some of these kids are smarter than their teachers. This kid knows math and he is clever. These teachers need to say what they mean.

15) Teachers Value Art

It’s good to know that art is still valued in schools. I mean, it should account for something. It’s a pretty good picture of a giraffe.

16) “Because I Am Not An Idiot”

This may be the greatest answer of all time. “Because I am not an idiot, it is a flower.” This kid is going places.

17) Lazy Questions

Ask a lazy question. Get a lazy answer. What did this teacher expect?

18) This Teacher Is A G

You gotta love this kid’s honesty. And the teacher must be a good teacher if kids feel so comfortable with him. But his response is hilarious.

19) When Numbers Equal Letters

Is this answer correct? I’d believe you if you said it was. I had no idea that letters equal numbers.

20) What Is This Teacher Looking For

Not sure where this teacher was going with these questions. The student could be right. Or very wrong.

21) F For Effort

This kid isn’t even trying. Like at all. Even his teacher is like, “Really?”

22) Explain Your Answer Please

The teacher did a good job being clear with the question. And the answer is technically right. They could have explained further though.

23) This Is Just A Big “F U” To The Teacher

Damn, this kid is bold. He has no respect for this test. And it’s pretty hilarious.

24) Who Is Funnier?

I’m not sure who is funnier here. The teacher or the student. One thing is clear, they are both Beyoncé fans.

25) Giraffes Are Heartless

This kid doesn’t accept your answers. She makes her own. And the results are hysterical.

26) This Teacher Is Awesome

I love the idea of teachers allowing their students to come us with something creative all on their own. What a great opportunity for students to grow. And this is just completely hysterical.

27) What Is Hard Water?

Yes, water that has hardened is technically ice. But that’s not what this teacher was going for. Clearly this kid hasn’t been paying attention.

28) For Her First Act Of Queen

When a queen ascends to the throne, what does she do next? Well, sit probably. Yes, but not politically speaking.

29) X Marks Incorrect

When you’re asked to expand your answer, this isn’t what they mean. They want you to expandon the equation. Not space the characters farther apart.

30) The Strongest Force On Earth

It’s 100 percent love. But this teacher is into science. So, that’s why he probably doesn’t get it.

31) Where Is The Nucleus?

That is not a plant cell. Or an animal cell. It’s a plant in a jail cell.

32) Kids Take Things Literally

Especially at a young age. That’s why you need to be specific. This is the perfect example of what happens when you’re not.

33) How Many Ghosts Are There?

Maybe using ghosts for this math lesson was a bad idea. This kid can’t get passed his beliefs about the undead. Or rather, lack thereof.

34) Sometimes Being Clever Pays Off

And this is one of those examples. He took a risk. And it paid off.

35) How Microscopes Work

Clearly this kid doesn’t know. Being blind could be a reason. But the teacher wants to teach these kid how to use microscopes.

36) Classifying Living Things

Taxonomy. Taxonomy is the answer this teacher was looking for. Nice try kid.

37) I Like To… Move It

This example will make sense if you were around in the 90s. This kid better pray that his teacher is a fan of Reel 2 Real. If not, he or she is in big trouble.

38) Again, Lazy Questions

What kind of answers does this teacher expect to get? If the teacher can’t take the time to ask the questions correctly, why should the kid answer properly? In the teacher’s defense, this kid probably had no idea what the answer was.

39) Quadrilaterals Have Feelings Too

And apparently names too. Like Bob and Sam. But the teacher was probably going for something like “square” or “rectangle.”

40) What Does Bob Have?

What debilitating disease will Bob inevitably suffer from? Diabetes. Obviously if he’s eating all those candy bars.

41) This animal lover

This sweet kid was given two options for answers that they did not approve of. Their response is truly adorable and we think he deserves an A+ on this one.

42) They took their role seriously

When asked to “assume the role of a Chinese immigrant in 1870,” this student really took that role to heart and went all the way. They also seem to know Chinese quite fluently!

43) At least they’re honest

Kids rarely appreciate all the things parents provide them with. This kid, however, seems to know they’ve got it good. We appreciate this kid’s sense of humor.

44) Not quite

This kid’s answer was actually pretty funny, but they seem to not know the definition of ‘adultery’ yet. Adulthood, my friend. Adulthood.

45) They got partial credit

This student thought they’d give their own personal opinion in lieu of an answer. Somehow, though, the teacher gave them half a point for their efforts.

46) They’re not wrong

Mariah Carey can definitely hit octaves that seem almost impossible, but for some reason, we’re not thinking that was the correct answer. Great answer though!

47) Don’t pick on Tony

Apparently practicing piano for 20 minutes a day is being a big nerd. At least, according to the kid who wrote this hilarious answer.

48) Geeeez…

Things took a turn we didn’t see coming with this student’s answer. Way to come up with a storyline to avoid the correct answer, but they even took their teacher by surprise.

49) Hopefully they got partial credit

This student took things very literally when it came to this exam question. And, technically, they’re not wrong. We hope their teacher found the humor in their answer.

50) Come on, now

This student wasn’t being very nice to Lady Gaga with this answer and they clearly haven’t been paying attention in science class.

51) Shhh…

This teacher wasn’t buying this student’s answer at all. Even though it made us chuckle, we don’t think this teacher was very impressed at all. Nice try, kid.

52) Accurate

Unless this kid plans on living over 100-years-old (which, of course, is possible but not probable), their drawing is probably accurate. This one actually made us laugh out loud.

53) Hello, walrus

This funny and creative student decided to try and persuade the teacher to let this exam slide by using a cute walrus as a distraction. It is awfully adorable isn’t it? We give them a B+.

54) Also not wrong

Here’s another hilarious answer that technically isn’t wrong and they should be awarded points just for making you laugh. It’s not like you hear those names everyday!

55) So good!

A fibula! Get it?! We thought this kid’s answer was adorable and brilliant all at the same time. They might not be paying attention during anatomy lessons but they sure did put a smile on our faces.
