Well I should've gotten a 15-19% in a Pre AP Physics Mid-Term Exam, but I got 50 bonus pts to knock it to 69%. But yeah, so I still failed it.

Only once, when my grade in English would have been an A regardless...

So I bubbled in a couple answers and laid the exam on my teachers desk, then played cards with some buddies :D

Yep. Big Grade 12 English Provincial exam, 42% if I recall correctly. I'm not one to pull meaning out of things that don't have it just for the sake of being "deep" or "thought-provoking." On this English exam we were expected to "interpret" the meaning of photographs and drawings... art on an English exam. Thanks but no thanks. It seems so long ago yet it was only four years.

too many times. my university is very tough when it comes to grading. there have been many midterms where the class average was about 40%. also in the first year or two we have what we call "filter courses" where the aim of the professor is to fail 40-50% of the students to see who's good enough to stay in the program.

Of course I have. But this is OT, and the internet, so expect far more geniuses with spotless academic records than you get people who have failed 1 test in their lifetimes.

I know but they're very strict and it's the best university in the country so I guess they feel the need to want to keep the best of the best for the sake of their reputation. which is not me, I'm just barely tredding along at this point :P

I dunno, I can see what they are doing. Why hold back the best with those that were barely scraping by? Its University, not High School.

Hmm, maybe a couple over the course of high school. Never a mid-term or final or anything. And I fail stuff all the time in college.

Hahahahahaha yeah I've failed a crap tonne.

From 5th to 7th form (year 10 to year 13) I failed EVERY single maths term exam, except for the final one. I failed every common test for maths as well (like single topic exams).

I failed my final history exam.

I've failed multiple physics and english literature exams.

Probably failed 20-25 exams.

But I still got into Engineering! Haha! Take that.

oh, almost forgot that I actually got scalled down from a pass mark to a fail mark on a latin exam. That was teh-injustice day for me.

I was pretty much borderline failure all my highschool era. I blame videogames and my parents. Oh and mabye myself.
