    Default I got a 106 on my International Politics Exam

    Therefore everything I have ever posted back here has been correct. Not only correct but BETTER THAN PERFECT

    My aim, then, was to whip the rebels, to humble their pride, to follow them to their inmost recesses, and make them fear and dread us. Fear is the beginning of wisdom.

    I am tired and sick of war. Its glory is all moonshine. It is only those who have neither fired a shot nor heard the shrieks and groans of the wounded who cry aloud for blood, for vengeance, for desolation.

    This is assuming two things:
    (1) The exam was not fatally flawed, because if it were you're just spewing the same flawed nonsense given how well you resonate whatever examiners want to hear/see.
    (2) Perfect leaves a lot to be desired, hence why better than perfect is viable.

    you cant get 106 out of 100 so obviously these elections were rigged. proof of the fact that you are using doping, that you are corrupt and that you manipulated the whole thing.

    There is no such thing as "extra credit", there is only "do or do not".

    If you are to do an exam, you answer the questions and marked on how well you answered them to a maximum marking standard. In University tests, it is near impossible to get over 80 (out of hundred) on an essay, but some how if you ended up being Dexter, Boy Genius, then you might be able to break it.

    Only except are mathematics where there is a definite answer, but you are marked on how and getting the answer, they don't give you free credit for spelling your name right.

    Really? I never noticed these mystic powers of grammar improvement while high; or conversely if my grammar is decent then I certainly don't notice its effects anymore. Maybe I should up my dosage. But as far as I know, the masses aren't particularly fond of- or adapt at- either grammar or spelling. Witness Youtube.

    Awaiting your 106 in English grammar,
