I have no experience with the latter, but most American universites also look at your class rank and therefore by doing so inherently make allowances for tougher grading.

I know it would be a problem anywhere else, I wasn't trying to defend your teacher, just to explain that even if he is wrong to do this in another country, this is how things work here and now. EDIT : Stupid keybord. Stupid fingers.

And NFL, Aviva's university said they will not accept her if she has less than a 90%. It's purely numerical. I don't know which university it is, but there you go.

Sorry Raia - every time Jar posts, I keep picturing JarJar Binks trying to work a keyboard.
And this guy isn't the first prof to have a whimsical grading scheme - but most universities have some sort of objective standard or at least a person to protest to if you think his classroom behavior is unfair or arbitrary.
