Which is fine but I don’t like the added attention of people knowing that I know how to know things.

It just dawned on me that even though I made an 86 on a test where 85 was passing,
1) I still got the highest grade
2) I did that while taking no notes for 10 out of 12 days of learning.

I don’t know how to turn off being the “smart one” in group learning settings. Not that I think that I’m particularly smarter, I just have the right combination of pattern recognition skills and a mind that moves freakishly fast.

I’m trying to figure out how to word the context for my previous statement without sounding like I’m bragging or trying to flex.

Then I get a teams message saying that I’m good and don’t have to continue with the retake. I’m presuming because they took into account the question I brought up that had two correct answers.

So I’m doing the test retake today realizing this is a whole different test that I might not get as lucky with… I was starting to get nauseous because the average of the tests has to be a 85 to proceed.

Backstory: this is a mandatory test covering two weeks of new material that I’ve taken very minimal notes on and not fully paying attention to.
Me getting an 84 on it the first time around was a blessing.

The retake was today, and again, I wasn’t too pressed thinking I was taking the exact same test I took Friday.

I made a 84 on a quiz I needed a 85 to pass Friday. There was a question that, in my opinion, had two correct answers. I brought it up afterwards but I didn’t press the issue because there was an opportunity for a quiz retake.
