I don't consider it virtuous!
By pushing more to pass:
- either the next year the problems will be more difficult,
- or it devaluates the worth of passing an exam.
Also, 30% is very low (especially as such cut-off are for the basic level exams, not advanced level exams). You get the high school diploma, but it is not something that is enough to get to any univ. that makes any sense (some will take such students, but only as they are being funded on the level of enrolment OR they are private and are essientially "a bribe-in rates for a diploma" style).
- ehnto 7y agoIs it not a final exam for the entire schooling process? If it is, I don't think there's anything wrong with letting people who attended, tried and got close, a passing grade. As much as we value merit, the real world actually isn't a meritocracy, and high school isn't much of a measure for how successful someone has the potential to be. I think you begin to be right as people move into academia though, certainly you want people who are actually good at the subject to be the ones passing university and going into the work force.
