  • Sounds like anendophasia

    It is not considered a disorder

    If we were to make a computer to “read our minds” it would pick up on our internal dialog which people with anendophasia do not have.

    People with anendophasia are not dumb. They just think different.

    Like imagine a person that was born deaf. They can’t have a verbal dialog in their heads. They could imagine sign language, images, or words. But just because they were born deaf doesn’t mean their IQ is low. They just think different.






  • Sorry it is called Curve Grading.

    Curve Grading

    Many ways to do it. But that example where the best student scored a 60%. Everyone would get +40%. That’s a Standard Curve method.

    Personally, they didn’t curve a lot of grades when I was in high school. It was more a college thing. A hard test that pushes the limit of your knowledge without being unfair.

    But yes a grade can change afterwards for whatever reason the teacher wants. They could just throw on 10% if they felt generous. Definitely apparent when it’s like a writing assignment without clear right or whole answers like math.


  • The teacher can pass or fail you

    You could do all the work or none of it and it is up to them to say “pass” or “fail” by giving you a grade

    After a test you could “round” the grades. Like if it was a very hard test and the highest grade was a 60%. You could round everyone’s test up by 40%.

    If you made a 0%, now you have a 40%. Everyone passes!

    (Don’t think this is too common, but plausible)

    Teachers are “encouraged” to not fail any student by a lot of pressures.

    You have to go above any beyond to fail high school. Trying hard and getting bad grades will generally get you enough to pass. Teachers will “work” with you.








  • You sprinkle some more cereal on the milk whenever you run out of cereal.

    The whole point is to not have soggy cereal

    Really depends on preference and cereal type

    It’s less of an argument between milk first vs second, but people that like soggy vs crunchy cereal.

    The important thing is to not add too much cereal before you can eat it all. Adding in cereal last just helps make sure you don’t.
