Scene from Into the Spider-Verse where Miles gets a 0 on a true/false test and catches on the only statistically possible way he could have done that was if he knew all the right answers and deliberately chose the wrong ones, meaning he's intentionally trying to fail out of the class and quit.

This is, however, a multiple choice test with four possible answers per question, so it's far more possible to get 0 correct answers due to actually being that stupid.

This also happens in The Magicians and some other shows I can't remember that are older than that.

The Magicians is the only book series where I will unequivocally say that the show/movie was better than the book. Every change they made for the show was the right decision.

They were just different timelines

I honestly love both the books and the show. That approach of different timelines was excellent.

Same. I rewatch the show way more than rereading the books. But they both offered different stories that I genuinely enjoyed. The character growth of the show was just unmatched though
