Re: what's a grade, anyway?



There is an alternative: At some well-known places they don't
give significant class grades, and rely instead on exams that are set by
third parties. That tends to push the students and teachers together;
"let's work together to show those examiners a thing or two".

Well, now, that opens up a whole new can of worms! Just what are these
third-party exams supposed to show? (I'm assuming they will be graded.)
