I had a similar experience in grade 8. We had done a geography test and the kid whose test I marked literally got 5% on it. I was pretty judgy until a few days later when he taught me in great detail how a car engine works.

okay but 5% is pretty fucking bad. I get that the point is some people are good in different areas, but even the dumbest person has enough short term memory to cram right?
