The Hanuman syndrome

One of our profs has coined this term called 'Hanuman syndrome'.
In Ramayana, when Lord Hanuman was asked to bring sanjeevani plant from the Himalayas to cure Lakshmana, he couldn't find the right plant and instead brought the entire mountain with him so that the vaidya (physician) could pick the right one.
In academics, 'Hanuman syndrome' occurs when the expected answer is not given but the student writes all that he knows and expects the prof to figure out the answer.
As students, many of us suffer from Hanuman syndrome quite often and tests have shown that sleep-deprivation and ambiguity are the main causes. Although we have found the remedy for the first cause, the second one is very elusive.
