i really hate faulty education systems... take for example there are 2 teachers who teach the same class. lets say that the class is easy. the first teacher teaches like normal and a lot of people get A's and A+'s. then people who have the second teacher get A-'s because the second teacher makes everything hard (sometimes without even knowing it). i hate it when bad teachers bog your grades down and cause your class rank to go down cuz your the only kid without an A+ in an easy history class because you have a crapass teacher does it happen to you guys?

Yes. In my Pre-calc, biology, and spanish II classes. the hardest ones too, IMO. but all teachers hate freshmen anyway.

It happens. Teachers have their own different ways of teaching. Most of my teachers/classes are like that too. EDIT: @above: Wouldn't having straight A+'s or straight A-'s both give you a 4.0? ._.

Well, my school has some hard teachers and some easy teachers for the same course. In the classes with easier teachers, you do less work, and do well .But in the harder classes, you do a lot more work, and your grades might be a bit lower. But it pays off in the long run.

It's better to get used to hard teachers. If you prefer easy teachers to get more grades then you will be mediocre in life.
