Oh well, maybe next time. <cite>MrMelodramatic posted [p:929104812] in I got a B+...

Monopoman 10/30/19 4:47:30 PM #9:	magemaximus posted... its cool when you have a teacher that curves Most teachers use a curve so they ensure a wide array of grades no matter what. Curves can be harmful though in a world where everyone scores very highly on a true curve some of the ones that score just a bit worse could be failing grades. A true curve dictates that at least a portion of the class must receive an F. <cite>Monopoman posted [p:929441515] in I got a B+...
