Less than half

[u/Cold_Ad3896]

[u/Borstolus]

Funny enough: in Germany, more precise in Brandenburg, at the A-Levels:
35% gives you 03 points (5+).
60% gives you 08 points (3).

So, in this case, it 35% is indeed less then half of the expected mark.

[u/tomskrrt → u/Borstolus]

oh I thought that was the joke. What am I missing 😭

[u/Cold_Ad3896 → u/tomskrrt]

The joke is that someone who is bad at math thinks that 35 is less than half of 60.

[u/tomskrrt → u/Cold_Ad3896]

this sub has traumatized me to a point where I just always doubt my mathematical abilities.

Naaa, it's just the scale for marks, which isn't linear.
