[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] A change in grading system is totally different than not being exposed to fully cumulative exams before having to take them in college. It's great that you felt prepared, but I really worry a lot of kids will be totally unprepared for the massive task of doing a comprehensive review of a year's worth of material ahead of a final exam. it takes years to hone those study skills and develop the stamina to study for a battery of finals. I think we're doing our kids a real disservice here. [/quote] PP who didn't have finals in high school. What classes did you take in college where there was an exam at the end of a two-semester class that covered the entire year's worth of material? A lot of my classmates became doctors and lawyers. I'll ask them if they feel that they were unprepared for the boards and the bar because they didn't have finals in high school.[/quote]
