For students, this is a stressful time as they are preparing for final exams.
Some lucky students, though, had one less final to worry about thanks to Kobe Bryant.
Apparently tweeting at big name athletes and asking them for a retweet is the new way to get out of exams.
Obviously for it to be a trend, it has to happen at least more than once, and it did as a class asked Aaron Rodgers for some help getting out of a final.
Rodgers is one of the best follows on Twitter because of his funny so tweets, so it's no surprise he came up clutch for this class.
Another reason why Rodgers is the people's champion.
Apparently teachers have underestimated the power of social media, and that's a wonderful thing if you're a student who really doesn't want to write a final.
