So a while ago my teacher said that we are allowed to make up statistics in exams as long as it sounds believable. Can anyone confirm that this is true??

Given it's clear what a band six response in economics requires (i.e. stats), it isn't so clear if they need to be correct. That being said if you make up something so far off from reality that any reviewer can tell it's BS, well... good luck.
