That �s why it �s POST New Math!

I am shocked by the fact that kids can �t figure out their marks when I tell them that each test is worth 25% of their final mark. |

Well, if their parents are involved in hedge funds & the financial scene, maybe 25% is not equal to 25%. It might depend upon what needs to be declared or what can be undisclosed....
