    I did something similar when I made a science fair project about pasteurization. I “replicated” one of the experiments Louis Pasteur conducted to disprove the theory of spontaneous generation. It involved heating two glasses of chicken broth, leaving one out in open air, and another sealed. The open air chicken broth turned darker over time, signifying the growth of bacteria from particles in the air falling into the broth. Instead of actually doing the same experiment, I put chicken broth in one glass, and beef broth in another, and labeled the beef broth the “chicken broth left in open air.” Nobody was none the wiser.

    I did this for my high school woodworking project 🤣, not on conductivity of metals of course, but we had to build something showcasing what we learned through the year. However my work was subpar compared to my class mates, so I made a small model house centered around the theme of "house of the future", I put a solar panel on the roof, ran the wire inside to a control box and one to the switch, and connected lights to the inside rooms. And it worked, I came in second in class, because I had a working model. But here's the secret, in the "control box" the solar panel wasn't connected, I just used two AA batteries to power the lights. I lied and told everyone that the solar parts worked, so every morning I would take the model house outside to "charge" 😂

I figured I'd just pull something out of my cheeks so I'd at least get a score. So I went into the bathroom cupboard, grabbed 10 different soaps, slowly cut rectangles out of them and tested their malleability. Took pictures of the bent and snapped soap pieces, slapped them on the board and wrote some stupid observations down so it didn't look as bland. I got a B.

After like two days I just started smoking the cigarettes myself and ran out of them. So at the end of the month I just put a little bit of water in the ashtray, mixed it around and dipped the sponge into it and took it in for a passing grade. The teacher even held it up in front of the class to make a point to everyone...

    In 5th grade, I did a science fair project where I tested a bunch of different materials on if they would corrode. I tested which were corrosive using nitric acid, what kind of reaction, and how quickly it reacted. My dad handled the nitric acid of course, and I would neutralize the reactions with essentially baking soda. I stayed up super late working on the trifold and typing out my findings. It took me almost 2 weeks from the experiment to finishing the display and I was really excited and proud of it.
    I lost to a baking soda volcano. No joke. But it's fine, I made good memories with my dad ❤

    in elementary school we had a science fair, and we had a month to do it and i didnt even think about it til the morning of.
    i grabbed a container of grapes, nabbed 5-6 of them at various stages of decay, taped em to a box, and said i put one in the box every 6 days.
    no one bat a fuckin’ eye. apparently 4th graders dont have observational skills.

    I once developed a product for keeping pets cool in a car with a mini fan and ice in a box. I lost to a guy who just made a "cool loking" river with a bathtub, pump, and a net.
    Years later I saw my project on the shelves at local pet stores.

      lmao I use to do this in my biology class. I noticed how disorganized my teacher was and how we would give us all of our grades at the last minute of the semester. Meaning he would procrastinate on grading and scramble to find the assignment. I figure out that the lab work that I didn't do, I had a decent grade on. So he would give you the grade based on what grade he thought you would get.
      So I made sure to ask questions after every class, get on his good side and then proceeded to not turn in a single assignment or lab report. I ended up getting high marks because of this.

So changing the power supply from a car to the suspension on the fly to interact with the road surface. THat itself won me the prize. I literally didn't have a ferrofluid until a day until the competition. When i did have it the night before was in my sink pouring this half oz bottle and measuring the flow rate as I stuck random magnets to a tube

    When I was in highschool I used to take pictures of other people's work and run it through an ocr and paraphraser everytime and never had to do anything. I also used to rip from several different blogs to write something, run it through a paraphraser and then do a final edit of it myself. Basically like what chat gpt does now. I was extremely good at this and would my homework on the way to school in the morning so like in 30 mins I would finish a 4 page essay.

    Reminds me of the time I had to do state testing in school, but it wasn't required to graduate and essentially I was taking it for no reason. So I answered "C" for every answer and proceeded to score "Advanced". They made me retake it. Answered "C" for ever question again. Still scored "Advanced".

    When I was in 6th grade and our teacher told us about the science fair coming up, I decided that I was gonna use this as an opportunity to get myself some new pets. So, I chose an experiment involving fish. Which set me up for my science fair experiment _and_ hooked me up with a couple of new little buddies. (RIP Sonny and Cher!) After all, how could my parents _possibly_ tell me “no” when I needed them for school?! LOL.

    Once in french class we had homework for the summer holidays. Naturally, I did not do any of them. They consisted of copying every page at the end of the chapter of the French school book that would contain all the vocabulary and grammar learned that chapter. We had to do that 3 times. A week before the deadline I tried to actually do it, then quit because who the fuck wants to do that shit? I said fuck it, picked up 3 sheets that I did do honestly, photocopied them to match the number of pages you'd need, and handed them to the teacher. I knew she had to grade all students, and she wouldn't care to check if it was actually done. So needless to say I got that 100%

    I did well in my high school science fair by testing three different solar cooker designs to see which could cook a smore most effectively. And it turns out the one I thought looked dumbest worked the best. (Basically a big wide tin foil funnel concentrated into a metal pot with the smore inside a ziploc plastic bag) The others were more practically sized/shaped vs. that one.

    We managed to do something like that in our capstone project for engineering (granted there was a ton of real work on something that a retired NASA scientist at the place was struggling with, but the demo was completely Jerry rigged/faked). Some motherfuckers (who I happened to be friends with) designed a functional autonomous golf cart (!) and we got voted 2nd place over them. 💀 1st place were a couple girls that basically sat and watched GE engineers do everything according to my friend's dad that worked for GE at the time. The world ain't fair. 😭😂 It's about who you know, not what you can do.

I’m in plant sciences, and I’m using hair as a fertilizer since it contains nitrogen which will decompose and release into the soil to aid in plant growth. At both the school and county fair I went over the experiment and explained the benefits that using hair as fertilizer would have on the environment. This whole journey started last year, when I lost at regionals to a pinto bean project

We managed to make a very very experimental web fluid idea (spider-man haha), and managed to get it to stick paper to the wall for a few minutes before the fluid would dissolve. The whole webshooter was just a 3D printed piece with a lighter filled with the fluid. We got an A, but somehow weren't even top 3. We lost to a fucking lemon powering a lightbulb.

    Had an egg drop final for physics that was planned for a month near the end of the year. Created mine the day of, doing finishing touches right as im about to drop it off the second floor onto a target. Used only toilet paper, paper towels, and rolled up bunches of paper as an exoskeleton/catching/dampening system obv. It survived, one of the only few, twice, while also being the smallest and lightest in volume. But since I had "blatantly shown no effort to contribute to class activities and display a complete disregard of scheduled assignments," i was given a C, a free mark hopefully used to boost grades up if close enough. :/
