Now, why didn't I think of it first ...

This is hilarious... Strictly speaking, that could be the answer since the question is "Find x" and not "Find the value of x".

Yes, I couldn't agree more. It shouldn't have been a zero point.

The following is a true case:
The question for a Philosophy exam was "What is courage?" A guy wrote on his exam sheet "THIS IS COURAGE!!" and then walked out of the exam hall~~~ He got an "A" ^^

Yes, I have heard of the case too. I think it was the one and only because I heard that when another attempted the same trick, he got a zero.

John also shared a similar experience when he was in grade 4. He was totally clueless about an exam question and wrote "Help" next to it. His teacher wrote back "Help! I need somebody. Help! Not just anybody" (the lyrics to the Beatles's song "Help".

Hi James, I came across your site while doing a search on actresses and models, popular female sigers, dancers, actresses and models. Though you don't have exactly what I was searching for it still provided quite an interested read. Thanks and keep up the good work!
