    Hey now. Some of us were smart but predated ADHD diagnosis. So we got put in there, did some fun higher maths, but still didn’t finish our homework and then barely graduated.

      Yeah that’s definitely the good ending. My school did so poorly they changed the grading curriculum to be 50% homework based so I was cooked on that.

      I did well on the tests but they made tests 15% and quizzes 12%. I don’t remember the rest of the breakdown but it was absolute bullshit.

      They did it because the year above me had a 50% non graduation rate and my year had a 53% non grad rate.

      The only reason the school didn’t get shut down is because it managed 47% the year after me and apparently the deal was 3 consecutive years of over 50% failure = shutdown.
