    My friend helped me count up my grades today by comparing it to the points system.I called out the grade while he matched it up.Only a while ago i decided i should recount and got an extra 50 points.Not going to trust him with my future again lol :D

    My friend got an A1 in honours Maths and managed to count up his points wrong.

    That's not as bad as our Guidance Counseller...
    He came out with his book of everyone's results and started telling them what points they got.
    Would have been grand except for the fact that they were all added up wrong...
    He told one of my friends she got 545 when actually she got 485 and another one that she got 600 when she got 580!

    close enough :pac:
    I got my mate who had an A1 in maths to add mine up, i got him to use his phone while i called the points out.

    He/his phone got my points right. So did my calculator when i did it again later

    My school had counted up everyone's points before they gave us the results. I had to double check just to make sure, I got quite a bit more than I was expecting :)

    Ah it's terrible if you mistakenly tell them they have more than they actually do...
    Friend of mine added hers up but accidentally reduced all of the points values by 5, so she started freaking out. After concluding that a B3 is worth 75, the problem was sorted.

    I'm glad I got 6 of the same grade, makes counting so much easier!
