You are welcome. Not fully. but I thought you deserved a laugh for you joke.
That's nice. Okay, I can explain. (Maybe it's not really that funny but I thought it was. )
So in my AP United States Government class, we had research papers and stuffs arguing for or against some policy or whatever. I chose one that probably I can't mention here. (We love you mods. )
Anyway, one of my classmates talked about how the minimum wage shouldn't be higher, and he said that if it was, *dozens* of companies would go bankrupt. My teacher thought it was so funny that he didn't say "hundreds" or something, because in reality dozens of companies in our country isn't that much at all.
So the point was he was being honest and so didn't exaggerate the amount or whatever.
Hm, so high school starts in year 7? If year 11 is college, you guys must have some young college people (compared to us). We skip the grade E entirely, but also . . . I can't understand how getting only 50% can be a passing grade. We must grade more strictly over here or something.
Yes, we don't have middle school. High school starts at year 7.
Well, year 11-12 is college here, but college here is not college over there. College students in the US are university students in Australia.
You do grade more strictly. But I also believe that the content you get given and the way it is given to you results in harder pass ranks.
Ah, I see. I think here middle school is years 6-8, but I really only had a middle school for two years, but that's because I'm homeschooled.
Okay, that makes sense. I know in the United Kingdom their university is our college and their college is just our high school or whatever, or I guess the last two years of our high school.
So you think that we grade more strictly but the content is easier anyway?

Now that I think about it I'm not funny anymore.
I don't know what the original joke was, but this paragraph made me laugh if it makes you feel any better.
