Fudge for Thought #2 : Marks Race

so when you are in the last year of school, on the verge of entering into the 'real world, all of a sudden there is the huge rambling about marks and how much it matters how high you score. Everyone expects a high score out of everybody ! 

But imagine a point in the future where everybody is scoring full, 100% and loaded with A's. Well then what will happen is that the 100% will become the average and since the position in colleges will reduce drastically, to distinguish the smarter they will have to up the marking scheme over the 100% bar to something higher. Thus we enter into an endless, vicious race for marks which really is as good as a dog running after its own tale. 

Just a thought..........
