Tell me about how your high school had a grading system for the classes.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah, so I was in a small town and the schooling system was segregated.
You had, for example, grade 7, you had 7-4 and you had 7-2. 7-4, the kids were throwing staplers at the teacher and rarely coming in and lighting up cigarettes in class. And 7-2 were the smart, often wealthy kids.
Was it academically?
Academically.
I was always in 4. And I liked it, because my friends were all in 4. And then I had a teacher, ironically named, or appropriately named, Mr Risk.
OK.
And he was a science teacher. And I did really well in science
and failed everything else. Like...
Was that because you are interested?
Just interested.
Yeah.
And it held my attention.
Mm.
So, he then makes me sit an aptitude test. Развлечения
Teachers are so important in life 😊
