This exam question is incorrectly graded.  The question is asking which statement is incorrect, correct?

Right

ADVISOR
So the correct answers are incorrect?

STUDENT
Yes

ADVISOR
So three answers are correct?  I'm confused.  Why aren't they incorrect?

STUDENT
The three correct answers are incorrect because they are correct.  The question is asking the student to choose the statement that is incorrect amongst the correct ones.
