I had a teacher that gave us three passes on anything and we would get a 95%. Most kids used it on HW. My friend and I used ours on the two most important projects of the year. And then I used the extra for some random test I didn't study for. Moral of the story: some people (me) are smart, but REALLY lazy.
A kid in my class once convinced our Hispanic perminant sub who barely spoke English (our actual teacher had a baby and was out the rest of the year) that he was Amish and couldn't use light bulbs or computers or anything printed off a computer. All his tests were hand written and he never could do homework printed off a computer or something he had to type and our classes were always in the dark. It was the funniest thing ever... A student even told her it was a joke but she thought that the kid was being disrespectful to the "Amish" kids beliefs so the disrespectful kid got detention
I had a science teacher who I would never do homework for at the end of the year so he just started to give me the grades my tests reflected. Both him and my algebra teacher gave me 90's on our final projects without me doing them. My engineering teacher used to just ask us what grade we deserved, and what work he did grade I'd just delete the questions I couldn't solve and get a 100.
