📝 AITA for yelling at my teacher

So it was History-Geography and we had a test and all the questions were based on things we had to research both in class and at home so when it was time to do it, I was doing well. I knew I was gonna get a 20 when the teacher, who we'll call Mike, decides mid way to change a question mid way. To one we NEVER learned or were indicated to look up. So I'm asking him 'can we name them in alphabetical order instead' (we were supposed to name the four caliphates after Muhammad in Islam in order of when they were caliphates) and he says 'no, that's general knowledge. Whenever you look something up, you get what you asked for' and I tell him 'but you didn't tell us to look it up, that's why I'm asking if we can do that instead' and he, acting like I'd exhausted him, just grunts, sighs, turns his head around, and ignores me for the rest of the test. So quick little info, I'm very defensive and dont let things I find unjust slide, I typically call them out regardless of who said it. So anyways, I start trying to guess them but then, the boys around me start to talk and somehow, SOMEHOW, he gives ME -1 from my test. Now even before I defended MYSELF, the people who talked come to defend ME just to show you how unfair it was. And he ignores them and when he sees me not doing the new question, so I muttered something along the lines of 'how is this fair, I didn't do anything' and he asks 'what did you say?' and I, angry as can be, go 'It's unfair! First you give us an impossible question, then you give me -1 for something I didn't even do.' and he takes my paper. So really, AITA?
