Passing an exam

Tuesday, November 25th, 2008

Diving BoardThree patients in a mental institution prepare for an examination given by the head psychiatrist. If the patients pass the exam, they will be free to leave the hospital. However, if they fail, the institution will detain them for five years.

The doctor takes the three patients to the top of a diving board looking over an empty swimming pool, and asks the first patient to jump.

The first patient jumps head first into the pool and breaks both arms.

Then the second patient jumps and breaks both legs.

The third patient looks over the side and refuses to jump. “Congratulations! You’re a free man. Just tell me why you didn’t jump?” asked the doctor.

To which the third patient answered, “Well Doc, I can’t swim!”

A brief exam!

BriefsSardar Gurbachan is appearing for his University final examination. He takes his seat in the examination hall, stares at the question paper for five minutes, and then in a fit of inspiration takes his shoes off and throws them out of the window. He then removes his turban and throws it away as well. His shirt, pants, socks and watch follow suit.

The invigilator, alarmed, approaches him and asks what is going on.

“Oye, I am only following the instructions here,” he says,” it says here, ‘Answer the following questions in brief’”.
