We have carefully and systematically observed quite a fairly few sizeable number of students who request for extra answer sheets in the exam hall, and writing exams these few weeks actually provided with an incentive that led to this article.
1. The Oppressors:
These categories of students will always top a list like this. They request for extra sheets primarily not because they actually need it but to subject other students to undue pressures making them look like they know nothing. A friend wrote a very tedious exam that threw him into a condition where he was looking up to heaven to provide answers to the questions, when this dude (oppresser) subjected all of them to undue pressures by requesting for extra sheets, making them feel like they have only come to school not to learn but for excursions. Mr/Miss Show Off.

2. The Photocopiers;
This is the category where some belong (as they no sabi book, at least, they suppose sabi copy well na) The photocopiers will dub the answers of both friends and enemies regardless of their GPs. Whether the GPs of those they are copying are 0.92, 1.00, 1.25 respectively, for all they care. They will add their own answers to the ones they copy from friends and enemies and before you know it, they will write more than anyone else. When their booklets become voluminous and can no longer contain answers, they will request for extra sheets.

3. The “I too know”:
During lectures, these students will argue with lecturers and create argumentative scenes in the class; they ask both relevant and irrelevant questions in the lecture hall. They will ask questions during lectures and will still be the ones to answer it themselves (how ironical?). You would think they will hit first class/distinction because of their display of vast knowledge on all course. They will go into the exam hall with this same character. When a lecturer asks “Summarily define Research methodology”. They will continue to write and write and go off point; they will narrate how Moses delivered the Israelites from Bondage; and how King Solomon married 500 wives and lusted after 300 concubines; they will even add Biblical references. When their booklets have been filled up, they will request for sheets to finish up their bull-crap.

4. The Story Tellers:
They share similar characteristics with the “I too know” students. The story tellers can’t explain or define theories without telling stories to justify their answers. Their stories and digression get their booklets quickly filled up.

5. The Scholars:
Of course, these ones are undoubtedly very brilliant. They will logically, lucidly and analytically answer exam questions and may demand extra booklets when need be. When they request for extra sheets, be sure that they will get nothing less than “A”, unlike the “I too know” crew who would demand extra sheets and still end up with an “E”.

6. Masquerade Carriers:
In case you don’t know, masquerade carriers is a synonym for “expo colonial masters”. They are so skilled and expert that they will still manoeuvre their way out even if thousands of invigilators are deployed to their hall. They will request for extra sheets, smuggle it into their pockets and will take it to their hostels. They will dub answers on it for the exam they are having the next day.

7. The Competitors:
They say life is a race, if you don’t run fast, you may get trampled.. The competitors dwell in this notion that life is a race, therefore, when they spot a student requesting for an extra sheet, they will also request for extra sheets so as to compete with that person.

8. The “Wetty Palm” Students;
The size of their handwriting font is as big as Olumo rock; just two answers, their booklets don full. A blind man won’t even find it hard to read their booklet at a glance.

9. The Misspellers:
Quite a few fall in this same category. They are are called misspellers cos they aren’t good in spelling. Often times, they even misspell their own names, department and course title and will have cross it out and spell it all over again. By the reason of their deficiencies in spelling, their booklets becomes so rough and illegible to read, hence, they can’t but demand for new sheets for fresh work
