Synopsis

The chapter revolves around a classroom discussion of the placement exam, specifically the infamous "Three Questions from Hell". Kyle presents his solution to one of these problems, but Baek Yuseol interjects, pointing out that Kyle's method was fundamentally flawed and only resulted in a correct answer due to luck. Yuseol then explains the problem's true nature using an absurd, conceptual example, showing that the problem tests understanding of underlying concepts rather than mathematical calculations. This significantly undermines Kyle's confidence.
