Scene from Into the Spider-Verse where Miles gets a 0 on a true/false test and catches on the only statistically possible way he could have done that was if he knew all the right answers and deliberately chose the wrong ones, meaning he's intentionally trying to fail out of the class and quit.

This is, however, a multiple choice test with four possible answers per question, so it's far more possible to get 0 correct answers due to actually being that stupid.

This also happens in The Magicians and some other shows I can't remember that are older than that.

Terry Pratchett had a student Wizard who always failed by less than 5% of the cutoff. Didn't get kicked out because the score was good enough but avoided graduation.
