During her time on Grey's Anatomy from season 6 to 17, audiences saw April Kepner mature from irritating surgical resident to fully-fledged trauma surgeon. She had her ups and downs at Grey Sloan over the years, and definitely had her fair share of dramatic story arcs. However, eagle-eyed fans will notice that not all of April's storylines and characterizations always made sense.
With so many seasons under her belt, and one of the most complex character arcs the show has seen to date, it's no surprise that some of April's stories had a few plot holes and inconsistencies.
From the get-go, April was depicted as a devout Christian who practiced abstinence. However, on the night before her board exams, she made the decision to sleep with Jackson, and as a result, she failed her board exams the next day.
What makes little sense here is not that April and Jackson were interested in one another romantically, but that her rigid beliefs seemed to suddenly change overnight. It's not that people can't change their minds, but more that at this point in the show, it was out of character that April would choose to disregard her vow of abstinence at all, let alone on the eve of such an important day.
