It’s currently university exam season in my country. My roommate has quite literally not come to university at all the entire semester except for mandatory stuff; hasn’t studied at all, doesn’t even have the coursework, 0 notebooks or folders, etc. We’re more than half done with the exam session and he got 10/10 (max grade) at each exam. He just read through my coursework the day before the exam for a bit & that was it. When I ask him he says he uses intuition, logic and reading between the lines to understand the “patterns”. I just don’t understand how you can use “intuition” for microeconomics & math applied in economics for example. I know for a fact he doesn’t cheat cause in his mind cheating is too much effort.
I almost never study for math tests. Its so easy. I just know numbers for some reason. Like I was born for it, my brain is wired for it.
Well except that one pre-calc class in high school. Teacher can’t fucking teach, everyone had C’s and D’s. Pretty sure if I had an actual useful teacher, I’d get at least a B with zero study.
Funny thing is: I picked Chinese for this “world language” requirement in high school (in USA btw). I was born in PRC and already went through the early years of elementry school in China. I fucking slayed Chinese class with zero studying, A’s for all 4 quarters (I mean, I didn’t expand any knowledge, because I already knew it, but I mean, I didn’t want more stress so… 🤷♂️ Free GPA increase I guess… 😅). Is picking a language class for a language you already know “cheating”? Idgaf, its a free grade.
