Exam Difficulty Progression

Time: 120 minutes. Questions: 20 questions. Time: 120 minutes. Questions: 120 questions. Time: 3 days. Questions: 2 questions. Open textbook. Use electronic calculator.

A three-panel black-and-white comic shows a calm Wojak, a disturbing shadowy face, and a terrifying dark figure as exam conditions become increasingly absurd: first 20 questions in 120 minutes, then 120 questions, and finally only two questions over three days with an open textbook and calculator allowed. The joke is that the final exam sounds easy, but the ominous imagery suggests those two questions must be impossibly difficult.
