It may be that I'm from the wrong part of Europe, but in Hungary grades are from 1 (worst) to 5 (best) in school...

really? both our neighbors (i am from austria) count vice-versa? honestly, i really didn't know that!
thanks for that info... now i feel... isolated

hmhm... i see... seems to be that there is kind of a "highscore" system established - the higher, the better.

What do you mean both our neighbours? Doesn't Austria have more than two?
One of them being Slovenia, where we also have grades from 1(worst) to 5(best).

we have lots of neighbors, yes - I meant "two neighbor countries posting here and BOTH have a different system" - i did *not* mean, "austria has only two neighbors"

Oh, sorry. Misinterpreted that.

Italy too has 0 (non classified, refuses to be interrogated) to 10 (flawless). 6 is the sufficiency. Usually the lowest grade given is 2 for a completely wrong written exam or no words spoken in a interrogation. Other professors use a minimum of 4 in order to ease the recovery of the grades of the student.
We had briefly A-F voting in elementary schools with A being the maximum... and it looks like we'll be turning back to that after 20 years. Meanwhile for elementary and junior high we had a crescent system, from Non Sufficient to Excellent.
Universisy is graded ascending, from 0 (empty) to 30 (flawless).

As a European, you get used to it. It is not just in grading, but the formatting of date's, as well as measurements.

Since not every grade is a school-grade, I am not giving you the full 10 points.

oh yes... the dates one of my most-loved topics (month before day...)
I am glad that in most jobs I have been so far, we store timestamps as ticks and utc and I barely have to deal with date formats... being "the backend guy" sometimes has its advantages
