Chapter 381

After all, it was the final exam, and the faculty wanted to up the ante a bit, but they never said anything about not being able to lower the passing grade. Besides, at Summit University, with so many children of entrepreneurs around, how bad could the grades really get? Lowering the passing grade by thirty points meant that about eighty percent of the students could now graduate. On the phone, Luna continued, โ€œBut Eloiseโ€™s score was almost perfect! Thatโ€™s just bizarre.โ€

Freya pondered for a moment. During the first exam, the questions hadnโ€™t been changed. It was the second exam when modifications were made. So, it was very likely that Eloise had smuggled in some crib notes for the first exam. What Freya hadnโ€™t expected was that Eloise would just blatantly copy the original answers, scoring almost perfectly.

โ€œLuna, Iโ€™ve got to go; Iโ€™ll hang up now.โ€

โ€œOkay.โ€

After hanging up, Freya immediately texted Ronan.

Freya: I want to see Eloiseโ€™s paper from the first exam, and the answer key that was used then.

Ronan simply replied with an OK. The content of the exam was quickly sent over to Freya in pictures. Freya carefully examined the answers. Eloiseโ€™s were almost identical to the key. Their department never really had absolute right answers, especially for the essay questions towards the end, which were supposed to be based on personal understanding and theoretical knowledge.

However, Eloiseโ€™s answers were a perfect match for the key. Freya chuckled softly. She guessed it was because Eloise knew Kieran would have her back, and no one would dare to scrutinize her paper, so she just went ahead and copied it outright. All she wanted was that dazzling score on the graduation exam.

Leaning against her headboard, Freya smiled slightly. Well, in that case, she couldnโ€™t be blamed for exposing these two test papers. Freya asked Luna to upload the two papers to the universityโ€™s forum, and by the afternoon, the post had exploded. Lunaโ€™s family was in the media business, skilled at catching eye-catching points. Plus, Luna used an anonymous account, making it impossible to trace her IP address, while also getting some bots from her family to spread the word. So, the post spread rapidly.

When Eloise heard the news, still a member of the student council, she was confronted in her dorm. The scandal had blown up big time, and even the schoolโ€™s disciplinary committee came looking for Eloise, all to verify the content of the exam papers. Although Eloise looked troubled, she also knew that if it was just a matter of similar answers, these people couldnโ€™t really do much to her. After all, she had Kieran backing her up.
