<p>[QUOTE=&quot;TypeCoin971793, post: 3441588, member: 78244&quot;]For me, homework has <i>always</i> counted 20% of my grade, and tests have always been at least 50%. Your attempt to be coy was just an excuse to evade the question, like you often do.</p><p><br /></p><p>You want to know the sad part? I expected you to say that very thing. Find the loophole to get out. Yes, I know someone who (supposedly) took a class with a 50% homework and 50% test grade. I also never said that the one guy aced his homework assignments.</p><p><br /></p><p>But the point which you <i>completely </i>missed/avoided was that two people should not receive the same grade when one only has superficial qualities for the class (nice, responsible, but little intelligence) and the other has the necessary qualities for the class (intelligence). </p><p><br /></p><p>Should IQ tests be weighted based on how amicable a person is? Should restaurant inspection scores be weighted on how nice the staff is and how tasty the food is? Should car safety ratings be weighted on how comfortable the car is?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
