Bimestrial exams

More than 90% of the juniors, freshmen and seniors prefer no to have bimestrial exams.

Many people do not like bimestrial exams because they say that you take too much time studying and they make you sleep late.

While others say that this bimestrial exams makes your grade rise because the accumulative grade is 70% and that way you can raise your grade if you have an accumulative grade of 87% (61/70) to a 91% final grade with the bimestrial exams.

A lot of people also want this to be eliminated because they think the schedule would be shortened.

Its an extra job for the teachers to do these exams said junior Jose Pavon, and also said that they also get stressed of checking a lot of tests in a short time.

The best thing to do is to make exams that are worth 20 percent because that way it would please both the want who want exams because this exam could still help raise this grade. It would work for the ones that do not want because that way they would study less because there would be less content.

Another solution may be divided the bimestrial in a mid-term exam and a final exam. Both tests will be worth 15% of the grade and that way they would have to study for one part, and then for another.
