The French system he’s talking about is more a contest than an exam. They are intentionally too hard/long for anybody to score perfectly. This way it’s possible to differentiate between two excellent students. Not saying it’s perfect, but at least it’s sort of fair.

There's also the unlucky ones who have something happen and can't do their best on the exam. High-stakes testing has its own problems.
