Well soon it'll probably be illegal to root for Russia as a US citizen at this rate. The Democrats will have you arrested

I'm 3/5 tests done and it's gone surprisingly well. The högskoleprov is an 8h exam (roughly 4h of actual exam time) testing verbal skills in Swedish and English, and quantititive skills like maths and diagrams. It's an alternative way of getting into university programs. Either you can apply to universities by grades only, or if you've done the högskoleprov, if your test scores are better than your grades, you can apply using those instead. My grades are very good though, so I doubt I actually need to do the test, but it can be good to have done it anyway.

For me it was the opposite, I had really average grades. They weren't bad, but my grades were like the 20-25% percentile in the school, while my test score was literally like the third highest in my grade

What would that be equivalent to in grades Warsawa? I'm similar, except maybe more in the "slightly above average" category. I'm the kinda person that can get admirable marks, but i've got to work hard for it.

The exam everyone takes in the Northeast is SAT, and I got 2000 on it. My score was in the top 7% percentile from what I remember, definitely in the top 10%. It would be the equivalent of getting straight A's, but I was far from a straight A student. For me it was like a mix of A and B, and then C or even F in classes I didn't care about lol

Back when I took it was only out 1600, I thought they merged the SAT II Writing into. SATs aren't that much like a class exam.

Here you a grade out of 20. 3/20 is bad, 19/20 is excellent.

In primary school it is /10 and not /20.

i got 1.7 on högskoleprovet. the verbal part was more extensive back then iirc. the verbal part was cut back, in favor of more maths to compensate for women's lower scores. but it backfired, and the gender gap widened even more.



i'm quite satisfied with 1-1 against malmö today. my expectations are very low this year. very nice tifos from both sides.
