If you were in school and had a bet with your roommate about final grades, you wouldn't call off the bet as a draw if you both got A's but you got a higher numeric score than he.
- nonchalance 13y agoIf you had a bet with your roommate about final grades, you would look at the transcript at the end of the semester. And that transcript most likely says A for both of you, so it would be a draw.
- jlgreco 13y agoI'd jump on the web and see the grades posted by the professor on the course website actually. I always got numeric grades at the end of the semester unless I waited long enough that the course website was nuked, or unless that professor was lazy. You could also just go ask the professor at their office for your grade, but using their site is easier.
- makomk 13y agoFor a bet like that, it doesn't matter if the score difference results from random chance and not any underlying difference in skill or ability. The NHTSA is in the business of assessing car safety though, and it makes little sense for tnem to rank cars within a category if they don't think the difference is actually meaningful.
