Let's not forget that the clever student will be indeed very surprised by a test on any day, since he thinks he's proven that he won't be surprised by tests on those days. It seems he made an error in formalizing 'surprise'.
(imagine how surprised he'll be if the test is on Friday!)
Since the student believes a surprise test is impossible, it seems this wouldn't surprise him.
