    numbers vs letter grades

    yeah, letters only do so much - more like a spinnit of your progress - numbers are very important as different marks correspond to different levels of the letter grades (A+, B- etc)... Ranks are also important.

    Thanks, um true freedom is being prisoner of God since God being under God's control is the ultimate infinity and blissfulness (if that answers your above question). Cheers again.

    Edit English Speech

    I haven't read it aloud to anyone else yet but I think I will decrease the number of emotions and try to use the word Donne less. Cheers. Btw, I am so over trying to aim for perfection that I am now just trying to be good and clear with what I am writing - cause perfection is impossible -...

    Edit English Speech

    Could someone please give me some pointers on my english speech (below): What we have done in the past never ceases to fascinate us. Memory allows us to pinpoint a time in our history and explore it for all its worth. It allows us to document many key events in time. Poetry is a powerful...

    Year 11 Standard English Marking

    Standard and Advanced students are NOT graded against each other. In the first task we did the highest advanced mark was 19/20 and the highest standard mark was 16 (or so I've heard). Another injustice was the two people who got 19/20 were actually intially marked 20/20 but because our...
