Just got reminded by my students of this one experience I had in highschool, second year.

I was absent from the class for a whole trimester but I was sort of known as an academic genius in the city back then, and everybody expected me to score pretty well.

There was this guy who failed physics three times and repeated the years several times..He begged me to let him copy my answers when we go in.

I told him I will fail that test because I have no idea what the lessons were. At the time one of my sisters was born and my mother was hospitalized. I was the only person taking care of my siblings. I had no time to study.

He didn't believe me. He copied every single line I wrote, even used the exact colors I used to organize the paper. 🤣

I scored 1/20..🤣🤣 and he scored 0.5/20. We failed miserably.🤣

He was so furious that he took my paper and his to the teacher and told him to explain right then why there is 0.5 point missing when we have answered the exact same way.

🤣🤣
