Kazan — summer 2012

In the past when a Russian student has received a test, they have received a grade on it on a scale of 1-5. Five is an A. Four is a B. Three is a C. Two, theoretically, is a D, but it's actually a failure. They didn't assign ones all that often.

Over the last few years that has started changing in Kazan. Now they are giving percentage scores. 85-100 is an A. 75-84 is a B. 65-74 is a C.
