He鈥檚 not wrong. I passed the exam and still didn鈥檛 understand it.
So you also failed the exam? (If I've not understood correctly).
No, I passed the exam thereby proving that I don鈥檛 understand it. Basically I was able to apply the maths and terminology in a manner that satisfied the examiner.
It makes no sense but that鈥檚 just the way QM is and you just have to roll with it.

But according to quantum mechanics, doesn't that then mean you also failed the exam? And killed a cat? Or something? Or saved the cat, but now we're straying into screenwriting where even less makes sense.

that very much depends on the reference frame of the observer. If the examiner and me were in a locked room when he gave me the result then in that reference frame I had a definite pass. To observers outside of that room I had passed and failed at the same time and both situations are true at the same time. It鈥檚 weird shit.
