[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The zero was the one dumb thing from the past that needed to be eliminated. It makes no sense. It doesn't align with any of the other grading. You can't get a 20 or a 30 or a 40 and a 50-60 is still a fail. It's like people can't even think. They can only react.[/quote] You can get a 20 or a 30 or a 40 on a test. At least, you could when I taught a few years ago. What are you talking about? [/quote] No you can't. If you do it, you get a 50-100. 50% is you didn't get correct the minimum amount on the test. The problem is that any type of school system should not have 60% of their grading scale failing and then much smaller discrepancies as being actual grades. Trying to explain this to the typical American seems well over their head so I won't even bother. [/quote]
