this morning, asked marcus to some assessment as exams are round the corner. while doing, he was in total agony and took a long time to do a few questions. i got a little fed up and started to nag. he cried. after a whole lot of talking, explaining, finally, marcus and i had a contract. i told marcus it's an experiment.

it goes like this:
marcus believes that without doing assessment, aka, practices, he can still score 70 marks and above for his english, maths and science.
mummy thinks that without doing assessment, marcus will score 70 marks and below for his subjects.

the deal:
if he scores 70 marks and above, mummy will not ask him to do assessment.
if he scores 70 marks and below, he will have to do his assessment.

who do you think will turn out the winner? i'm taking side bets here. 1:1 for betting mummy will win.... 1:3 for betting marcus will win, no, let me up it to 1:5.
