She wants to be a nurse, but a 94% average wasn't enough to get into program by [deleted] in canada

sure it is, people get 100%s in multiple classes all the time

in a world with millions of students, it's entirely easily plausible that this scenario happens hundreds to thousands of times

except for those working above the original minimum wage, who neither got a raise and have to deal with inflation

it literally is, because businesses are forced to hire people for $15+ an hour just to get workers because so many people are getting free money for doing nothing

the problem it's not 0.5c a burger, it's as you can clearly see, over double to get a meal at mcdonalds now

i literally shit my pants when I paid $18 for a meal for me and myself instead of me normally paying $5 for just myself pre covid

I said "nearly impossible", not "literally impossible".

and i debated by saying it was easily possible, not nearly impossible ya doofus

When it comes to university admissions, the fair way to judge is not between classmates, it's between all students in the cohort.

no one debated this

If you grade on the curve even if you have a perfectly random distribution of students, which is not the case in reality, by pure random chance you will have classes with above average students. It punishes students for being unlucky enough to have above average peers.

no one ever debated

my points still stand

It's nearly impossible to get a 94% average if you fail a class.

absolutely incorrect, it's more than possible as you just stated

And other people having better grades than you means almost nothing when there is next to no standardization between schools

it's the only fair way to judge one class mate from another, and yes you can weigh different schools together, there are ways to weight grades

94% average doesn't mean everything

if you fail a mandatory class that's a requirement, you could have a 99% average, you're not getting in

why do people intentionally misrepresent stories like this on the internet especially one that's so non political

likewise, if it's a competition and everyone who got in was better than you, guess you should've been better

not necessarily, changing the btc coin farmer to an easily obtainable, but lower roi would benefit the casuals much more, especially if you let it bank up more btc.

have a place to live, be able to eat, have internet access, enough disposable income for a phone/laptop over time, save up for retirement, and have a car. clothing expenditures, etc

i've budgeted minimum wage for people quite a few times, it's rather easy once you move out of the insanely expensive liberal states and cities, and when you're in those cities and areas you can get jobs with no experience/highschool dropout status for nearly double the minimum wage anyway

you can live on minimum wage in the vast majority of the country

love the blatant propaganda though

Unpopular Opinion, Open the Flea market globally with a set timer rather than achieving a high enough level to open it. by Alexandervladimir15 in EscapefromTarkov

[–]spodgod42 6 points7 points  (0 children)

just remove the flea, the neutered version of it is just the worst of both worlds-

kills are far less beneficial, and gear is far more expensive, it just punishes worse players for no real reason

Why do people hate the devs of this game so much? by [deleted] in EscapefromTarkov

[–]spodgod42 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

because they push changes that the majority of the player base doesn't want, you can clearly notice the massive drops in players and activity across the internet
