Re: "...The kid probably didn't need to cheat to pass. College isn't all that hard unless you spend all your time drinking and partying and he don't sound like the type."
You're an engineer, right? You've obviously taken math. I don't know if you found it hard, but many do.

Heading into the final, Joey was worried. Take that with a grain of salt: He's got a 3.96 average. Keeping that average is what worries him. A B+ is unacceptable and he thought he might not even get that until this Pass/Fail thing came along and took the pressure off. But after the final, he was very relieved and said the test was far easier than the two mid-terms. He didn't know that going into it, though and was concerned. The other kid must have felt the same way.

BTW, Joey says Linear Algebra *IS* conceptually easy - for a math class. But there's a huge amount of material covered and that's what makes it hard.
