[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have middle schoolers, but don't kids have cumulative final exams? It's that enough of a reason for a kid who got a B on a test to go back and figure out what they did wrong and learn that material?[/quote] No, finals generally don't seem to be cumulative anymore. [/quote] [b]They do at the high school[/b] level BUT many teachers and syllabi waive the final exam if a student maintains an A in class. Can you really blame a kid for re-taking to get an A when the teachers own syllabus incentivizes the A. Teachers set the standard and now they are upset with it??[/quote] We have not found this to be the case.[/quote]
