While some are making sure that they have reached their assigned classrooms; others appear to be soaking up information last-minute from their phones via PDFs sent by professors.

They often like to pretend as if they didn’t study much and are expecting a bad grade, but these people end up getting one of the highest marks in the class.

Students Who Appear Relaxed

These are usually the people who have given up on scoring well in that particular exam and are satisfied with the amount that they have studied.

The question papers usually start with MCQs, which are the easiest to obtain answers for, from others, without getting the attention of the invigilator(s).
