yeah, i didnt like this one the first time i looked at it either. its too wordy and subjective for me

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I agree

OpenStudy (amistre64):

do all students have an equal oppotunity to get the class they request? sounds to entitlementy to me.

OpenStudy (amistre64):

all students have an equal opportunity to receive good grades, and then the school has the obligation to use thier limited resources in an efficient and effective manner.

OpenStudy (campbell_st):

well you could say something like 315/379 honour roll students got the maths class then wanted and 315/359 students who got there maths class are on the honour roll...
