A teacher in Malaysia recently took to social media to express frustration after a student copied the exam questions as their answers.
“Student stress is more important. Noted,” @jjnrsd captioned on X, replying to a video of a lawmaker advocating for the abolition of exams to reduce student pressure.

The post, shared on Wednesday (27 Nov), has since garnered 1.5 million views.
In the attached photos, the student is shown to have copied two exam questions verbatim as their answers.
The first question asked the candidate to examine an excerpt and explain the political system of Jahiliyyah society, a period in pre-Islamic Arabian history.
However, instead of following the instructions, the student simply copied the question word for word.

They even misspelled one of the words, “jelaskan” (meaning “explain”), as “jejaskan”, which means “damage”.
In another question, which asked to explain the contributions of Mesopotamian civilisations in the field of technology, the student wrote the URL of the photo attached as their answer.

“Help, we are dying mentally,” the teacher added in a comment.
He then clarified: “It’s not about embarrassing the student, but this is the final exam of the school session. The answer could already be found in the excerpt and image. The issue here is that the student is too lazy to try. I’m disappointed.”
Netizens weighed in on the issue in the comments, with many echoing the teacher’s frustration.
One user shared that during their time as a substitute teacher, students answered in a similar manner, despite having sample questions available for review.

Meanwhile, another commenter suggested that the student may be mocking the teacher by copying a URL as their answer.

Another user, presumably also a teacher, posted photos of their students’ exam papers, showing that most of the questions were answered incorrectly.
However, a few pointed out that students who are too lazy to answer have always existed, suggesting that this issue is not exclusive to today’s generation.
