Whats the most marks you ever scabbed? (1 Viewer)

[RUB!X]

how far have u gone?

 

[Not-That-Bright]

i never scab.. it pisses me off when i see people scab, cuz usually they're seriously just scabbing...
And it's annoying when some guy who does worse than u scabs marks to become equal when in the hsc u can NEVER scab....
Ur marks should be final unless there's an OBVIOUS error...

 

[Xayma]

I haven't "scabbed" marks, but I do point out errors in the marking such as MC or if another person has the same answer and they got it right and I got it wrong.

 

[:: ck ::]

i try to scab as much as i can....

 

[kimmeh]

ive onyl pointed out errors in adding marks up. and i question the teachers why i got this question wrong, and sometimes i get the mark because they forgot to mark something but i dont march up and scab.

 

[Zarathustra]

If no one scabbed the (school) world would be a much better place... where has the honour gone

 

[hipsta_jess]

lol, after we got exams and the like back, an entire period was dedicated to us trying to scab marks
the teachers didnt mind, in fact, they encouraged it.

 

[Misturi]

I hate it how people who got top of the class try and scab, its weird l know but they still do it so they stand out from everyone else.

Oh and l only point out errors, never scab. Someone in my maths class didn't use simpsons rule, except he got 390cm and the answer was 380cm with simpsons rule. Even though simpsons rule is only an approximation, he didn't get any marks because he worked it out wrong. He had a bitch about that!

yeah only point out errors, since the reason you might've lost marks is because ur essay (say in english) isnt exactly A material...so no point in scabbing...unless ur in year 12!

Luckily you picked that out!

Yeah, a few. My IPT teacher is a retard and makes spelling mistakes in the MC that completely screw up the answers, and he doesn't notice. That's where I scab.

 

[fashionista]

my chem teacher missed a whole page of my marks and that meant the difference in my half yrly rankings by about 20 places..lukcily i got the 5 marks back

 

[KarmaKitten]

never scabbed
teachers have never made an error

 

[cro_angel]

haha once they didnt add up the marks properly and i was 19 or 20 marks short.. might i add this was a maths exam.. it was year 8 though..

 

[ToO LaZy ^*]

i only point out calculation errors...
eg..when i got 18 for one of my essays...it said something like 12 on the marking page.

 

[santaslayer]

5.5 marks in Eco.....

that is pretty hilarious, this is going too far and i'm surprised she actually successfully scabed the marks

I personally don't like the idea of scabbing only in the special cases when people do get ripped off. But it feels bad when you see other people maximising their marks, and you are just sitting there accepting your marks. I would scab as you will be disadvantaged if others do it and you do not. I few minutes of embarrasessment confronting your teachers and pleaing to get a better mark is worth the trouble, especially the HSC.
