A Student's Sentiments

Points to ponder:

In a class of 20 odd people, this student, by the name of Student X, has always been given more assignments by his teacher for the past year, as the teacher always claimed that he is someone with good calibre and wishes to expose him to much more challenges, compared to his other classmates. His teacher also told him that he knows that student X is very diligent, has been consistently doing well, and he is very likely to score high grades in the examination. Motivated by his teacher, Student X accepted the challenges, and he got to work doubly hard compared to his other classmates, as he got multiple extra curricular activities commitment which his teacher knows he need to juggle at the same time.

Every year, the students were being assessed by this teacher, who decides how many marks each of his students will get, and how the class will be streamed and banded for the nest year.

Ironically, in the examination, all students in the same class got the same number of marks and all were banded into the same class.

Conclusion:

Was Student X not intelligent enough compared to his peers?

Did Student X did so badly in the exams, until the point he was on par with everyone?

Was the teacher playing a prank on him all along?
