；　and　the　possibilities　were　endless。

But　somehow　she　just　didn？t　feel　like　shrieking　or　signing　anyone？s　yearbook；　even　though　her

calligraphy　was　way　better　than　theirs。

Now　she　realized　how　the　seniors　must　have　felt　all　winter　while　they　were　waiting　to　hear　back

from　colleges。　She？d　done　everything　she　could　do。　Her　fate　was　in　someone　else？s　hands。

Cheating　for　old　times？　sake

Blair　and　Serena　sat　side　by　side　at　the　long　black　chemistry　lab　table；　scribbling　away　at　their

last　and　final　exam。　The　AP　chemistry　students　had　been　seated　between　the　regular　senior

chemistry　students　and　were　taking　a　different　exam；　so　it　wasn？t　supposed　to　matter　that　the　girls

were　practically　bumping　elbows。　Constance　Billard　liked　to　think　its　girls　were　beyond　cheating；

but　the　truth　was；　they　cheated　all　the　time。　Blair　and　Serena　were　no　exception。

Molarity　if　5。827　g　of　NaCl　is　diluted　to　a　volume　of　100　mL？Serena　etched　into　the　inside　of　her

Blair？s　exam　book。

n　=　5。827　g　/　58。4425

n　=　0。09970　mol　of　NaCl

M　=　0。09970　mol　/　0。100　L

M　=　0。9970　molar

Blair　scribbled　the　answer　on　the　inside　cover　of　her　blue　book。What　are　you　wearing　Monday？

she　wrote　next　to　it。

Why　Monday？Serena　wrote　back　before　copying　the　answer　Blair　had　given　her。　Was　it　possible

that　Blair　already　knew　she？d　been　called　back　for　a　second　audition？

Graduation？duh？！Blair　scribbled　back　hastily。

Serena　stared　at　the　words　Blair　had　written。　It　was　so　typical　of　her　not　to　have　realized　her
