"I see that everyone already expects you to take on the an

Serena chuckled, "I'm not sure Teacher, I don't think I'm up for the responsibility" she honestly replied

"h It has always been our tradition to give the position to the top scorer However, it would still depend on you I understand that the position does entail a certain responsibility, but I do believe that you can do it"

"Well… I'm a little afraid that it would affect my perfor serious? Honestly speaking, your result in the exams, at least for my subject, was beyond expectations I don't even think that I can teach you anything new Before reading your essay, I personally thought that Adam's Smith invisible hand was the best theory in any case as it will always lead to market equilibrium However, when you discussed the loopholes and market failures that ive you a higher score than 100, I would have"
