You always gotta double and triple-check your work before you turn it in!

Those are words to live by, people!

And that goes for school AND work.

But today we’re gonna focus on the school side.

Take a look at these mistakes that students made and try not to cringe too much, okay?

1. That could have been ugly.

Watch your step, sir…

But I’m not in charge, am I…?

I wouldn’t put it past those pesky professors.
