\n\n\n* ZenerCards: The main characters' high school science class tests each other for psychic powers with a classic Zener deck as an introduction to the scientific method. Predictably, nobody averages above the 20% success rate they'd get from random chance. However, the protagonist realizes his friend ''is'' secretly a mind-reader because he overcompensates to hide it and gives the wrong answer 150 times in a row.[[note]](The odds of that happening by chance are under 1 in 300 trillion.)[[/note]]

* SuckySchool: Edgeview Alternative School is underfunded and full of broken second-hand furniture and equipment. Most of the students are {{Delinquent}}s and run amok, and the whole school is terrorised by Bloodbath and his gang. It's got a few SadistTeachers and when punishment is handed out it isn't just writing a few lines.

Added DiffLines:

* MoreInsultingThanIntended: Martin ends up ExpelledFromEveryOtherSchool because of his compulsive smart-aleck tendencies, which invariably make his teachers, fellow students, and relatives far angrier than he expects. {{Justified|Trope}} by the reveal that he's TheEmpath and was subconsciously picking up on people's greatest vulnerabilities.
