The exam went smoothly.
It's hard to find anything that doesn't go smoothly for Sam these days.
Any knowledge that passes through his eyes can be quickly digested, understood, and retained with long-lasting clarity.
The boost in intelligence has its perks, enough to change the fate of an ordinary person. But for Sam, these things no longer bring much surprise.
After finishing the exam, Sam put down his pen, once again the first in the class to complete it. Many classmates were no longer surprised by this.
Sam's grades used to be average, and his sudden leap in performance took some getting used to. But now, it was seen as a normal "awakening" that happens to boys in high school.
Stepping out of the classroom, it was still snowing outside.
Despite the gloomy weather, the excitement of the approaching holiday was palpable.
Even though exams weren't over, many classrooms were already buzzing with noise.
