You need a good grade on your final exam to push your 2.9 to a 3.0 for your MBA. Per company policy, you must earn a 3.0 or above for tuition re-imbursement and a generous raise. Given family and work pressures you didn’t have time to prepare for the exam as well as you’d have liked. However, during a visit to your professor’s office on the morning of the exam, the opportunity arises for you to sneak a quick peek at the questions when the prof leaves the room to consult with a colleague. The business school requires that all grades be assigned according to a specified distribution, so your success on the exam will mean that another student will not receive as high a mark.
