Making $80,000 in 6 Days

So what I did was, midway through our test, when he said the surprise was happening, he got up and he left the class. And we all looked down, we're like, is this a surprise? And then we started passing around the Scantron. Like, one of the smartest kids passed it back, and we started passing it around. And he came back in like 5 minutes, we all had the answers.. And now I had this written portion that I still haven't filled out. So I took my Scantron, my multiple choice, which was already done, and my written portion. And I waited till the smartest girl in the class that sat far away from us went and turned in her test. She was like third or fourth that turned in her test. And she turned it up right at the teacher's desk, like right in front of his nose. Hey, is where she put the test. Right when she, right when she got up and she turned in the test, I went up. I put my Scantron down, I put my written portion down, and I went, oh shit, I didn't fill out the written portion. And I took back my written portion and I grabbed hers from underneath too. No. And I took hers back right in front of my teacher's nose and I took my Scantron back and then I passed it around to my 5 friends in the back and we all ended up getting 98% on the final, which is ridiculous on a chemistry test. Holy shit. 98%. Ridiculous. And I got an A in the class because of it. I got an A in chemistry.

David31:06
