September is fully upon us, dear Pandas! There’s a bit of a chill in the air. The leaves are gently falling (though not if you live in Florida or anywhere else really warm). Cafes are rolling out their pumpkin spice-themed drinks. And for many students across the world, the month has heralded the end of our glorious summer and the start of the new school year.

What that means is a whole harvest of hilarious and relatable Tumblr posts and memes about being a student. Our team here at Bored Panda had the utmost pleasure of picking and plucking the best of the best student posts to share with all of you Readers, fresh from the farm to your screen. Whether you’re currently in school or at university or haven’t been inside a classroom in years, these are bound to make you smile. Especially if you’ve ever had to write a paper hours before the deadline (no judgment, we’ve all been there).

As you scroll down, remember to upvote your fave posts and let us know in the comments which of these made you laugh the hardest. Take out your pens and notebooks and let’s begin!

You're paying for the research and the time spent writing the book, not the materials. Same way you buy a movie and you're paying for the production, not the cost of the disk.

One of the problems today is that people think diamonds are more valuable than paper. If paper were more valuable people wouldn’t cut down so many trees.

    For an assignment once I had to measure parasite load in this species of shrimp. While doing so it became pretty evident that this population was protandric (a type of sex change), despite the species being confirmed as non-protandric decades ago. Presented the research to my professor, who didn't care, and I didn't have the resources to pursue it myself. One day that population will be "discovered" as a new species or subspecies and I will get zero credit. This dude should honestly be proud that his professor took him seriously and supported him in such a cool finding.

    Education is all about improving our skills, forging connections with other people, and trying to get a tiny bit closer to the truth about, well, pretty much everything.

    However, getting at the truth of things, whether you’re in school or college (or even at work), can be more difficult than it would seem at first glance. Learning, whether in class or when you’re an adult, means constantly staying curious about things, trying out your hand at new hobbies and interests, and questioning what you find online. This can be even harder when you realize that even the adults teaching you can make mistakes.

    As an American that would still be confusing. Did the event happen when you were a freshman in high school or college? Still doesn’t also answer the question because your age doesn’t indicate your education level. My first year of college the youngest person in one of my classes had just turned 17 and the oldest was in their 50’s.

    There are different words for the languages spoken in China. 中文 is kind of a catch-all for any language spoken in China. 粤语 refers specifically to Cantonese. 普通话 is often translated as Mandarin, but literally means "the common language." If the slide said 我不会说中文, then "I don't speak Chinese" would be the best translation.

    Lenore Skenazy, the president of Let Grow and the founder of the Free-Range Kids movement, explained to me during a previous interview how to challenge authority figures in a friendly way if we believe that what they’re saying might be wrong. It’s as applicable to students in their communication with teachers as it is to employees who think their managers might have missed an important detail (or two!). Diplomacy and manners are incredibly important here; there’s no room for aggression because the end goal isn’t to get into an argument.

How long before a viewing do you pull a body out of refrigerated storage so there isn't condensation on it when the family is there? How long can you hold the service while the family flies in relatives from across the country before either decomp or freezer burn sets in? You better not just guestimate that stuff.

    At the core of challenging anyone who might be spreading falsehoods lies diplomacy. You might not like what your local authority figure is saying. You might believe that they’re spouting utter nonsense. However, instead of being combative from the get-go, it’s best to calm down and try to find some common ground. Your mission should be to learn something together with them, not to prove that you’re the best and most knowledgeable person in the classroom/office.

    I never checked my grades once during my AA or BA. I had a 3.91 GPA but the stress of seeing my grade was too great so I just ignored it. During my MA I finally started reading comments left by my professors and talking to them about my papers and stuff. I told one of my professors that I appreciated their advice one this or that and said how I regret not ever checking my grades before. They were shocked. They asked what I would have done if I had been failing a class and didn't know, I told him you always kind of know but if it had happened it would have only confirmed my deepest suspicion, that I screwed up and was a failure. I reassured him that I wouldn't have taken it hard because I loved to be proved right. He was so conflicted between laughing and worrying I was being serious. 100% serious. LOL.

    You are kidnapped by political-science majors (who are upset because you told them political science is not a real science). Although blindfolded, you can tell the speed of their car (by the whine of the engine), the time of travel (by mentally counting off seconds), and the direction of travel (by turns along the rectangular street system). From these clues, you know that you are taken along the following course: 50 km/h for 2.0 min, turn 90° to the right, 20 km/h for 4.0 min, turn 90° to the right, 20 km/h for 60 s, turn 90° to the left, 50 km/h for 60 s, turn 90° to the right, 20 km/h for 2.0 min, turn 90° to the left, 50 km/h for 30 s. At that point, (a) how far are you from your starting point, and (b) in what direction relative to your initial direction of travel are you?

    As a political science major myself, I support all the Realist minded International Relations students who took it upon themselves to prove the theory that power is the ultimate deciding force, and kidnapped the physics majors. Realist believe that States do what is in their best interests when they have the power to do so. So clearly these were Realist poli-sci kids who decided to escalate the argument with a demonstration of applied theory.

    According to Lenore, it’s not “cruel or crazy” to believe that someone out there might “have their facts wrong,” as absolutely everyone has made mistakes or been wrong about something in the past. Unless someone is very deliberately trying to deceive or manipulate you by spreading lies, it’s best not to get angry if you know for a fact that they’ve got a piece of info wrong.

    In my high school, we had, among other things: ramen that some kid forgot to add water to (acrid smoke), a piece of fish that someone put. In. A. Toaster. That went badly. Popcorn was accidentally put in for 20:00 instead of 2:00, took like 5 for it to catch on fire. In college, one dorm was evacuated because some geniuses (drunk boys, what do you expect) put a can of Aquanet (girlfriends hairspray) in a pressure cooker. It blew up and filled the whole dorm with the nasty scent.

    “If it turns out that you do find some information that contradicts what the other person—your teacher or boss or anyone—has stated as true, again, the best approach is not confrontation. It's assuming that the other person didn't mean to steer you wrong,” Lenore said that we should seize the learning opportunities provided instead of being aggressive in our desire to be right.

    My teacher had unmuted himself by mistake and while trying to mute, he accidentally switched his video on. So approx 60 students heard his wife shouting at him in the background and saw him put hands on his eyes, face and hit his head repeatedly on his fist. The best thing was none of us wanted to inform him that we could hear and see everything. BEST DAY!

    Sadly, there are plenty of scientific papers written like that too. The people who do the peer-review don't usually have the time to check every single reference. And bad researchers just skim titles and abstracts for statements that confirm their findings, whilst ignoring any contradicting work.

    Had a class with a 500 word limit for the weekly paper. Just a small response paper kind of thing. I am incapable of writing only 500 words. The TA even called me out for being the only student he had come across who modified font and margins to make it look like you wrote less. However, feel that you need both. Learning to edit is incredibly useful. Probably edited out over 10 pages or more for all my grad papers.

    Easy, change the font color to the paper color and type in a bunch of random words separated by colons to meet your word count. When the instructor opens it in Word and looks at the word count it will match.

    Wikipedia is often written by non experts who don't always do a good job ( looking at YOU articles on the USSR using anti- soviet references more than 30 years out of date), but it can be a good starting point for looking for other sources by checking their references. And any college level paper should require something more in depth than any encyclopedia anyway and colleges provide database subscriptions for students to academic databases

    Literally citing wikipedia in your paper is a huge no-no. It's equivalent to citing the World Book Encyclopedia. All on its own, its not a real source, you need to get to where the author got their information from.

    Hmm, in my experience that might be true for younger education, but not in higher education. None of my assessments at university were about recalling facts and you would have scored very low marks if that's what you did. It was about critically evaluating a topic, showing that you had a deep understanding of the subject. My subject was a social science, maybe it's different for 'hard' sciences, but that's my experience.

    No lie though, that is exactly what employers are looking for. Work in healthcare research, most of my admin staff have degrees in completely unrelated fields. Just proves you are competent and reliable enough to pass a class, for my entry level admin jobs that is pretty much all I need to know about you. Some I can hire high school grads for but the institution has college degree requirements on the higher levels. Mostly makes sense but I have fought with HR over one high school grad who has worked for here for 5 years and they won't let me promote her anymore even though she is one of my best employees. Drives me nuts. She proved it to me, don't need the paper to tell me. Still angry about it. She leaves to go somewhere else I won't blame her, I will blame our HR.

    "12 hours of homeword daily" ? 8 hours of class + 8 hours of sleep + 4 hours of basically all the little things you need to do for physical and commute resons, + 2 hours of small entertainment to not kill yourself = no more hours left for homeworks.

    I remember in high school there was that thing where teachers would be like “I expect you to spend 2 hours every night doing homework or studying for this class”, but they’d all say that and you had 7 or 8 classes. Even with block scheduling giving you only four classes a day, that’s still 8 hours of studying. You leave for school at 6 am, you get home at 4 pm, and then do 8 hours of studying. Assuming you also eat food at some point, YIKES.
