JUST LIKE IN REAL LIFE. on the front of every exam i have ever sat (from SATS to A-Levels) its states 'ATTEMPT ALL QUESTIONS UNLESS OTHERWISE STATED' in bold capital letters on the front, it is also notted that any stand in observeres convey this to any candidates before the start of the exam. and i should know because ive done the job mnay times before.
so whos trolling? me who take the words from the anime and takes what is implies right through the segement or you who brings your teachers in to it, and of course it matters what a teacher can do, just like how shikamaru is more likley to pass the latter exam for his latral thinking it also counts here. and also why should thinking beyond the normal only go one way, why should they only interpret it as an infomation gathering exam? also if thats truly what it was they they would have gathered form the infomation given that they would have indeed passed the test if they didnt answer any questions at all.
of course i know this is wrong in the CONTEXT (like i said failing the fact it was translated incorrectly naruto would have failed if it werenot for the last 'question') and again it looks like ill have to say it was initialy a light hearted comment to stop some flames coming my way, but in response to the flames if you take the language used, the ommision of the statement that you had to attempt the questions, the fact they are ninjas and are supposed to be observant as well as the fact its a infomation gathereing exam, iam 100% right.
