The quantum physicist's dilemma in three acts! Regular students freak out at quantum mechanics tests (understandably—those wave functions won't collapse themselves). But actual quantum physicists? Totally chill about it. The punchline hits when the professor says "double check your work"—because in quantum mechanics, the act of measuring (or checking) literally changes the outcome! Heisenberg's uncertainty principle strikes again! The more precisely you measure position, the less precisely you know momentum. So double-checking? You've just altered your entire experiment! No wonder it's panic time!
