Matthew Effect

The Matthew Effect is a series of academically questionable actions preformed by a student in order to achieve a letter grade of a B or higher in his/her classes. Examples include, but are not limited to: Purposefully submitting corrupted files for grading, completing assignments weeks after the assigned due date, and outright forgetting the assignment in question even existed.

Friend 1: Hey, what grade did you get on the Chapter 23 notes?
Friend 2: I got an A, but I never turned them in.
Friend 1: How?
Friend 2: The Matthew Effect.
