Five hours from my final Anatomy and Physiology exam, I have suffered catastrophic belt-failure. This cannot be a good sign.

The degree of badness of that sign is greatly influenced by whether your car has stopped running or you are simply having difficulty keeping your pants up.

Ha! My thoughts exactly. "I sure hope he's talking about his transportation and not the inability to hold up slacks".

Crap, that reminds me, I need new pants.

My pants, I'm afraid. I was putting them on and the buckle on my belt fell off.

This is in fact worse than a car breakdown, I could take the bus then. Doing the exam with no pants may be somewhat embarassing.

Yeah but if you're doing the exam with no pants then either you're dreaming or in a porn film. Either way your score on the test doesn't matter.

Fortunately, I managed to fix it with an impromptu anvil (The wall.) and hammer (My old, useless calculator.)

I did exams completely nude.

But I'm an extramural student.

They have America OnLine in Britain. Is it not used by natives?

NC school sells test points for $20 to raise money

I am totally ok with this provided it's really easy for a potential employer to find out the total dollar value someone spent on boosting their grades.

Any change can potentially be enough to change your grade letter. And if it isn't enough, then why are they expecting any students to use it? I guess if you're failing in high school you won't be able to figure that out. I can't tell if this is elevating the wealthy, preying on the stupid, or just a cry for help.
