[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I went to school in France. We have a different education system. We are graded out of 20. Anyone who gets 16+/20 in some of the core subjects physics, chemistry, math and philosophy is considered a GENIUS. I can't count the number of times my kids came home with perfect score here in the US lol. I don't necessarily think the system is broken, I just feel like in the US if you deserve a 100 the teacher gives you a 100. Whereas in France, you are going to be known in the entire grade if you score 17 or 18 out of 20 in physics or math.[/quote] That reminds me of a Youtube video I saw comparing French grading to American. In the skit, the French teacher told the American student that “18 is for students. 19 is for teachers. 20 is for God.” [youtube]https://m.youtube.com/shorts/KZ79xUpkBcc[/youtube][/quote]
