My American Government professor has a weird grading system. The class consists of 3 tests worth 100 points each, a presentation worth 50 points, and a final worth 150 points. That's a total scale of 500 points. Anything between 450 and 500 points is an A. But each test has more than 130 points availible on each test (oddly enough, more than half the class dropped because they were failing).

I arrived for the final with 413 points. In order to get an A in the class, I need to get 27 points on the final. That's less than 16%

Is it wrong that I looked at a couple of the essay questions and considered answering "I know the answer to this, I'm just to lazy to write that much crap down"?
