    What a weird max score... as someone who grades, you generally want it in a way that gives a clean percentage, mostly for transparency and tracking for students. My class does 500 total points (thus a 5 point quiz is 1%, 100 point exam is 20%, etc.), which is what previous instructors did and helps students figure out what is needed for an A.

    But 59/59? Thats confusing af. Bet it's out of some arbitrary total, too.

      Come on, give the teacher some slack. This is such a small detail, and every decent grade keeping software handles arbitrary max scores just fine.

        59/59 is a clean percentage… it’s 100%

          Maybe it was 60 originally but the teacher then decided to remove/not grade some part of the exam.

              Underrated comment.
              Though I guess ̔andwriting would've worked even better.

                lol you're inventing issues

                there are 59 points to be gotten on this work. they got all 59. somebody who missed three points would get 56

                it doesn't make a difference for record-keeping and final grading, it's all going in a spreadsheet anyways. if students care about percentage on that specific item, they can calculate it themselves

                    I hope this red circle trend continues to be a thing, if it wasn't for the circle I wouldn't have been able to figure out what part of the meme I was supposed to look at

                    I don't know what to look at. Can somebody maybe put a bigger red circle around it?

                      This is why my handwriting sucks. Because teachers kept bitching about it when their handwriting was just as shit.

                          In University some professors like to make life easier so it all adds up to 100 points. The finals would be 40, >80% attendance 10, midterm 20, and 3 assignments 10 each. So u can know if u passed the course even before finals.

                            Are you talking about the singular twizler encompassing the word, salsa?

                              I'm so desensitized to them that I didn't even notice until you pointed it out.

                              Maybe you need a red arrow to make people aware of the red circle
