I think that it should honestly diffr for each student . Some people are better at tests then others.

Man math is usually pretty hard and with a weighted test grade it makes it way harder.

I understand a test is making sure we actually know what we have been doing. But i believe there is NO reason for it to be 80% of our grade. We do so many assignments and a lot of us get good grades on them. Tests are timed, and a lot of us have to be on zooms which is new to us. Some people are just not good test takers. If we are doing the assignments and getting them right, we obviously know what we’re doing. I think the test weight should be brought down. It will help many more students succeed!

Since test count for 80% of my grade, I was never able to bring my grade up in math passed a D- and I had a 100% on all my assignments. I am a horrible test taker this basically lead me to dropping math a whole, just so my transcript would not be as bad if I continued taking math. This structure of grading makes it very hard for good students or anyone to keep on top of their grade in math or have a chance to improve. We are hardly learning anything and we are expected to throw up everything on a test. We are too worried about test scores vs if kids are really learning or trying to learn.

I definitely don't get why the school makes the test bring your grade down so much if you miss some questions.

The math grade weight is huge and completely unnecessary.
