<p>do any of you have a system at your school where you can exempt a final if you have a certain grade (for example, skip an exam if you have a 95% or above in the class)?</p>

<p>W0000000t!!!!!!!!!!!!!</p>

11

<p>I have two tomorrow, neither of which will really affect my grade!! :)</p>

12

<p>i failed my math exam.</p>

<p>:cries:</p>

13

<p>And the sight of the thread title triggers all of my repressed stress.</p>

14

<p>I love finals. They are always hard the first day but easy on the second day. (We have two days to complete finals)</p>

<p>Besides nothing can really affect my grade if I have an A++ in class. Usually I can make an F and still come out with an A in the class. Many of my fellow classmates hate me for this, but I just sit there and smile. ....LOL</p>

15

<p>Except for Orchestra and Calculus, I have strait A minuses (FIRST TIME EVER, it sucks) and I have to do well on my exams to push each subject up to an A. Exams are worth 10% of the semester grade in my school...sigh the pressure!</p>

16

<p>10%????</p>

<p>Mine are worth 20%....</p>

17

<p>half of mine are 10% and the other half are 20%</p>

18

<p>We don't have final exams at our school (for the 1st semester), however we do have a final exam at the end of the year (only material covered in the 2nd semester is tested). Our high school includes grades 10 to 12, and when I was in 9th grade (which was located in the middle school or as it is known here, the junior high school), we did not have any finals. As a senior, I can exempt out of a final if I maintain a B average for the last marking period and have at least a B for the year. Our school is stupid.. but.. it's great for the students (doesn't prepare us well for college, but I'm not going to complain!)</p>

19

<p>25% in our school.
blah.
its the same as six weeks of a grading period</p>
