The history-sheeter was standing outside the gate of the examination hall and chatting with the invigilators. Inside, mass copying was going on merrily. The jeep of the proctor slowed down before the hall, and then accelerated away.
Questioned, the proctor quipped: “Just for a few sheets, I have no intention of becoming history!”
A student would take the pen to write and then with a frown put it down and stare at the question paper. An invigilator, who was watching the antics for sometime went over and asked, “Are some questions bothering you?”
“No,” was the reply. “It is the answers that are troubling me.”
A teacher urging students to prepare for the final exam tells them that the time was running out as the paper had been set and sent to the printers. He asks, “Are there any questions?”

The principal of a school in Uttar Pradesh was being felicitated by the Education Department for the unique achievement of a hundred percent result in the High School Examination and all candidates having secured first class with distinctions.

The young girl had been wasting her time during the semester and when the examination time came near, she was unprepared. She went to the handsome tutor and said, “I would do anything if you passed me.”
“Really? Anything?” he enquired.
“Yes, anything,” was the excited response.
“Then go and study hard.”
The maths lecturer was set to start the unit test. “Now,” he announced, “I am very democratic, and therefore, I would like to give you a choice. You may write a three-hour test, or three tests of one hour each. Which do you want?”
The class looked back in silence, unable to decide which one was the lesser evil. A boy took the decision for the class. “Please, sir,” he proposed, “I would rather fail in one test than in three.”
