I'm not as dumb as I thought (hold that thought, eh?) I passed 8th Grade Math! You Passed 8th Grade Math Congratulations, you got 9/10 correct! Could You Pass 8th Grade Math? Mind you... if it had been fill in the blank - I prolly woulda embarrassed myself. Heh. Well, you wouldn't have seen *this* anyway. H/t, ALa, who didn't so quite as well.... http://www.thedonovan.com/archives/2006/03/im_in_a_test_taking_mood_today.html http://www.thedonovan.com/archives/2006/03/im_in_a_test_taking_mood_today.html Sat, 04 Mar 2006 14:30:25 -0600 Heh... http://www.thedonovan.com/archives/2006/03/im_in_a_test_taking_mood_today.html#comment-42055 http://www.thedonovan.com/archives/2006/03/im_in_a_test_taking_mood_today.html#comment-42055 Mon, 06 Mar 2006 14:56:48 -0600 Without testing it - I'm guessing if you get 7 out of 10 or higher, you get the A+ graphic. 6 or less, you fail. Kinda like modern education theory where *Everybody get's A's!* so they feel good about themselves... except that it actually *fails* people, too. Heh. http://www.thedonovan.com/archives/2006/03/im_in_a_test_taking_mood_today.html#comment-42045 http://www.thedonovan.com/archives/2006/03/im_in_a_test_taking_mood_today.html#comment-42045 Mon, 06 Mar 2006 11:20:29 -0600 10 out of 10! Wot! How do you get an A+ for 9/10 that's only 90%, barely an A! http://www.thedonovan.com/archives/2006/03/im_in_a_test_taking_mood_today.html#comment-42044 http://www.thedonovan.com/archives/2006/03/im_in_a_test_taking_mood_today.html#comment-42044 Mon, 06 Mar 2006 11:10:44 -0600 10/10 ... and a good thing, too - or they'd have to take my degree back ;-) http://www.thedonovan.com/archives/2006/03/im_in_a_test_taking_mood_today.html#comment-42009 http://www.thedonovan.com/archives/2006/03/im_in_a_test_taking_mood_today.html#comment-42009 Sat, 04 Mar 2006 22:31:34 -0600 9/10. WOOT! Like I told ALa.... somebody call my parents! QUICK! They'll never believe it. http://www.thedonovan.com/archives/2006/03/im_in_a_test_taking_mood_today.html#comment-42004 http://www.thedonovan.com/archives/2006/03/im_in_a_test_taking_mood_today.html#comment-42004 Sat, 04 Mar 2006 20:35:19 -0600 9/10 which is more than I got for grade 8 math. http://www.thedonovan.com/archives/2006/03/im_in_a_test_taking_mood_today.html#comment-42001 http://www.thedonovan.com/archives/2006/03/im_in_a_test_taking_mood_today.html#comment-42001 Sat, 04 Mar 2006 18:42:59 -0600 9 of 10, but it doesn't tell you which or give you the corrected answer! I hate tests like that! http://www.thedonovan.com/archives/2006/03/im_in_a_test_taking_mood_today.html#comment-41989 http://www.thedonovan.com/archives/2006/03/im_in_a_test_taking_mood_today.html#comment-41989 Sat, 04 Mar 2006 16:32:53 -0600 I passed 8th grade math about 18 years ago. I've never been very good at math, and in fact failed the only calculus class I ever took. I thought I'd be embarassed by this test. 10/10, baby. Mind you, I'm pretty sure we did this stuff earlier than grade 8. http://www.thedonovan.com/archives/2006/03/im_in_a_test_taking_mood_today.html#comment-41985 http://www.thedonovan.com/archives/2006/03/im_in_a_test_taking_mood_today.html#comment-41985 Sat, 04 Mar 2006 15:39:54 -0600 8 out of 10. *grin* And math was by far my worst subject. Fortunately, the last time I had to take a math class was in high school. :) http://www.thedonovan.com/archives/2006/03/im_in_a_test_taking_mood_today.html#comment-41979 http://www.thedonovan.com/archives/2006/03/im_in_a_test_taking_mood_today.html#comment-41979 Sat, 04 Mar 2006 15:14:26 -0600
