British students create memes to vent about a ridiculous biology exam question

Did they really just ask that?

We've all experienced the fresh hell that is standardized testing -- revising for hours on end in the hopes that what you've studied will come up on the exam.

From the sounds of it, students were asked to explain why Darwin was drawn as a monkey in the sketch below.

Students tweeted some hilarious memes in reaction to what they considered a very random exam question...
