i got an 84%. i am not happy with this, but luckily my teacher recognize every basically bombed the no-calculator part (my friend missed 14 of 16 possible points on that part) and she's letting us retake that portion. if i ace it, i'll be bumped up to a 98%, which i would be extremely happy with.

and FinaleTI, no problem. i imagine i'll be using it later on in life.. and i'd like it to display both triangles for the ambiguous case, but i had a 1000 byte goal to meet so i left it out ;)


Yes, but an update doesn't count for the byte limit, I'm sure

I see. Well for me 84% would be OK since the passing note is 60% and it usually take an average of 80% to get to restricted college classes, but I always liked when I got something better.

If I went for Informatic, which is what I want, I have an average at the moment of 15.8 out of 20. I would only need 12.9 for Programming.

However, I'm going to medicine, and need 18.3 out of 20, which I can do

Yeah it depends of what thing you want to major in, really. If the college class you want to have is limited to a certain amount of students, you need the best score possible. It's also worse in high populated areas like New York, because the demand is much higher than the offer. Over here for sciences I think you can get in with 60% passing note in everything, but in USA, sometimes you almost need 100% for some stuff...

I am in a public school.
My school had the highest average of all public schools in my country.
The director and teachers really push us to the limits.
This is good.
We can get motivated :D
