Do what you’re told!

Found this recently:
“…..an exam I sat a few years ago while doing my English GCSE. We were given three pieces of writing, each with a set of questions attached, and were asked to “Choose one of the three exercises below”.
While we were all sweating out pages and pages of answers, a friend of mine simply wrote “I choose number two”, and did nothing for the rest of the exam. Since he had, technically, fulfilled the requirements of the paper, he had to be given full marks.
Almost all GCSEs I’ve seen since then have the instruction “Choose and complete one of the following”.
Is life really so simple? Do we believe this?
