Before the Great Uniform Scale, I attended and then taught at a school that was 94-100, not 93-100. . .

All grading scales are ARBITRARY; yep, someone just made them up. And claiming that mandating a uniform scale makes all things equal is, well, silly. . .

It is human folly to pursue quantification and objectivity, but we persist. The real problem with such behavior is that ultimately these fruitless ventures do negatively impact children.

The SAT, GPA, and all such are and have always done more to negatively impact school than help.
