Messing up the projection formula
this is from his personal experience he got banned from his advanced maths degree despite getting a raw 90 on his math1141 exam because he thought the projection question asked him to write a 3 page essay on the projection of his personal life, romantic life and antisocial life.

A very common error is choosing the wrong basis vectors in a geo proof question.

If you try an impose a specific set of vectors on any given question and suddenly end up introducing unnecessary angles, you're gonna have a bad time.
