Perhaps You Shouldn’t Tell Your Scientific Teacher That You Despise Science
The saying goes that honesty is the best policy, and I agree with that. In this case, at least the kid didn’t fabricate the answer or attempt to concoct it from thin air. It’s also possible to be too honest. Not a good idea to seek dating advice from your science instructor after telling him that you despise the subject matter. The solution to this exam was at least interesting.
What this instructor provided the kid was relationship advice and the right answer all at once. I like this reaction to a clever response.
