Well, it was a pilot, and my school was one of the few schools to participate in it. The government decided that it was too much trouble, and now we're the last class that will be able to do it.

The biggest plus point? Usually you're supposed to just get one resit for your finals, but because of this pilot, we can do one resit for every subject. Even if you didn't take the exam early. It's really weird, but a happy truth.

Whatever the second paragraph means, I sense something very lucky.
......:banghead:

@Baron Brixius: THAT REALLY SUCKS, AND ONLY ONE SHOT FOR THAT TEST???
Time to move, dude xD

A resit, a do-over, you know. Under normal circumstances you'd get only 1. So say you failed both Latin and economy, you can only choose one to do over. But because of our school participating in the pilot, we can do-over every subject. So say you failed Latin, economy, English, and didn't think your Math was high enough, you can just take them all again.

Well that does suck. It's do-or-die.

What sucks even more is that that test is like a lottery. You must be lucky to pass it with more than 100 points. Because questions there give problems even to our school teachers.

Damn. So basically, you have to be smarter than your teachers to have a good chance at passing. Min's right. Time to move.

Most people in High School dont have the liberty to do that. I was referring to Baron Bixius and his test that he says if he doent pass he wont be able to go to college

Yup. I was really surprised when I first heard it myself. I always thought it just went for the subjects you took early exam in, but I was wrong.

I also dodged the bullet on something else. This year we're still allowed to fail Dutch, English or Math, and still pass the grade and go to a University, and use or graphical calculators for our economy and management finals. For the people next year, that's all over too.

@Baron Brixius: Then take Shiny Celebi's advice. Increase your chances. Prepare for the tests. X_X
Bah, yours sound worse than our country's...and I thought ours was bad.

@Mizzle: That's it, the next time I see you alive in a mafia game that I'm still alive in, I'm lynching you first. Reason: strictly "META" <-- joking

Whoa, talk about lucky.

Um well if you dont pass the SAT n america its kinda the same way, colleges wont accept you. Its a hard test, and I doubt id pass it especially now. I cracked under the pressure of studdying for it, and ended up not taking it, needless to say, ive never been to college
