@MrWonka, that's not the education system, that's simple averaging and mathematics. How did you open such a successful business without understanding means?

@MrWonka, okay so i have a huge beef with my old high school. (Warning, storytime) at my second to last month of my last year of high school the school councilor calls me in and to my surprise I'm lacking the proper credits to pass and graduate all of a sudden. Half a science credit of all things, which is weird because i liked my science classes. Then i find out that my computer science credit for science was changed to business credit a YEAR AFTER i got a science credit for it, and just before graduation. I was told i could still graduate but had to attend summer school, but that was filled up so i had to come back for it next year. Then their policies changed and i couldn't take one class but had to repeat my ENTIRE senior year because of a clerical error. I have deeply hated the school system everyday since. Time has not weakened this anger.

@Dephenistrator, isn't that their mistake through?
-
@tumblretard, they don't really negotiate. To respond, the next year during senoir prank, i made several hundred copies of an essay i wrote on what was wrong with school. I tacked it everywhere and thought i was gonna get caught but didn't somehow. I even had a speech to give to my captors but i forget it now. I had a couple students ask me to sign their copy (i passed some out). It was a great 3 days.
-
@Dephenistrator, You have all of my respect.
-
@Dephenistrator, wow, damn 😦
-
@Dephenistrator, you had a speech for your captors?
-
@Dephenistrator, it's alright, not like you're going to achieve anything in life anyway so that extra year was no big loss
-
@Dephenistrator, coulda considered equivalency and applying to college? Or was college not in the picture anyway?
-
@IAmFlame, my family was too poor, and my mom is actually not stable so there were no college plans
-
@MrWonka, yeah, i wanted to go off on them. I don't remember it much anymore, but i was gonna unload on them quite a bit. I actually still have the last copy of the essay nailed on my wall.

Sells pot to teacher. 88 to 420.

It's actually a simple grading concept called busllshjt
-
@Squares Town, No, it's an even simpler concept called arithmetic mean.
-
@Fluffy Iguana, yeah, but it's bullshjt that teachers give 0s. And I am a teacher.
-
@Ruupasya, I don't see the bullshjt in it. If a student didn't get a single answer correctly, then why award them points they didn't earn?
-
It's stuff like this that makes me want to drop out of college

Um, this is basic math. The concept is called arithmetic mean, most people in the US learn about it in 4th grade.
-
Well how did he get his grade from a 54 to an 87?

@Jmouser10, corrections work wonders

The school struggle

That's still two F's...

Math checks out, anyway As long as nothing is weighted
-
Nixon 51-30 Watch!!!

Somebody doesn't understand weighted averages...
-
Well that's because exams exam. They are rightly worth a larger portion of your grade.
The education system is flawed FLAWED, I SAY
