[quote=Anonymous]As I understand it, beginning in 6th grade, all the academic subjects have a final comprehensive exam (comp) that is worth 60% of a student's year end grade. This final exam covers the entire year, so they will have to study all their notes from the beginning of the year forward. If a student fails this exam, they will have to take a summer make-up class and retake the exam before moving on to the next grade. At the same time, BASIS does provide a lot of review/reading week/Saturday school to prepare for this exam. They also give a mid-term (pre-comp) that is like a practice for the final comp.[/quote]
