In the long run, maybe they don’t, but once your grades fall it’s harder to pick them up. Even more difficult than picking up Thor‘s hammer. You see, suppose you and your departmental topper make the same boo-boo on the exam. His/hers will be treated like a minor “oopsie daisy”, and yours like a carnal sin. Why? Because it’s his first time, and you will be considered a regular failure. So always maintain an equilibrium in your grades.
