@Poggio: I can't wait to see the event then, if they're working this much on it it's surely going to be incredible :D!

A failed test/exam could never break anyone's grades here no matter if it's high school, college, etc.

Normally, besides the occasional test/pop quiz/exam, the teachers make sure to question a few students about subjects orally and grade them on their answers each day or every few days, then there are also the projects some of the teachers ask students to do and prezent for more grades.

The teachers here can't really decide what to teach and what not to teach, they're required to teach the entire lesson plan so they can rush things a few times or, if they believe they're really behind, ask teachers from other disciplines to let them come over and hold their lesson instead, if not ask the students to stay a little longer.

The only time where failing one single exam can break you would be during the Baccalaureat period(s), if you fail one you fail the entire thing and have to retake it... The same is somewhat true in University as well, but you can just retake the exams and they won't hold you back a year (though I'm not sure if they'll pass someone who failed most of their exams at the second go as well ^^;).

EDIT:

Bye Poggio, have a good day :).
