Cribs

This is the name given to any request for revision of marks awarded in a quiz or exam.
Now in Quant, we have this funda of genuine cribs. If one submits a crib and its found to be not genuine, then he/she stands to lose 2 marks if its a quiz crib, or 5 marks, if its a exam crib.
Hence its very important to know that ur crib is genuine before u actually crib.
So i got my quant mid term paper. Much below wat i had expected. I wasnt sure bout one of the corrections. Hence i wanted to submit a crib.
So i contacted the TA ie teaching associate, and asked him "Sir, can u please define a genuine crib, and how would u classify a crib as genuine or not?"
He then gave me a dissertation on wat they expect out of a genuine crib, at the end of which i was even more confused.

Finally in the end my marks didnt improve, but i did gather the knowledge not to ask for a definition or differentiation of crib as genuine or non-genuine :o)
