How to hack MasteringEngineering with unlimited Attempts

Extra Tries and Answers
Ok, we all have been screwed over mastering engineering because of drawing vectors or simply being a decimal point off. Every time you enter an answer and accidentally get it wrong it says how many attempts you have left and takes points away each time. Im sick and tired of this crap.
Go to the Main Page:
http://session.masteringengineering.com/myct/courseHome?start=1

Click on your assignment, the box with all the questions will pop up.

Put your cursor on each link and read the link, their are unique IDs 
for every problem.

Ex. http://session.masteringengineering.com/myct/itemView?
assignmentProblemID=1565835&frame=banner

To "rework" and have unlimited tries until how to really work the 
problem, copy and paste the URL in the address bar and change the 
URL from:
http://session.masteringengineering.com/myct/itemView?
assignmentProblemID=1565835&frame=banner

to the new URL:
http://session.masteringengineering.com/myct/itemView?
assignmentProblemID=1565968&rework=1

The "1565968" problem ID is not unique and can be shared with others
doing the same problems.
