About Russia

Moved: was at Talk:Grade (education)#About Russia

I can't remember our teachers saying "пятёрышник" or "еденишник" - guess that was many-many years ago. :-) By the way, "еденишник" is misspelled, the correct is "единишник".

It is far more often when teachers say "отличник" ("otli'chnick") and "двоечник" ("dvo'echnick"), respectively. "Otlichnick" comes from "otlichniy", that means "distinguished", and "dvoechnik" comes from "dva" - "2", in Russian. Because "1" is VERY rarely used, "edinichnik" is never said. Still, "piatiorichnik" can be used, but "otlichnik" is more often.

By the way, when you are given "1" for the lesson, it means that your work was awful, very-very bad. That is why this mark is usually put into work-book in larger size, than any other mark. Thus the teacher attracts pupil's parents' attention.

The use of "average" in this article is misleading. In principle at least, Russian students are graded relative to an abstract learning standard, not relative to the class or to any other average level. Sredni vashtar (talk) 18:15, 20 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

"It is necessary to understand, that in Russian universities, all the courses are compulsory subjects." - That is a)wrong, and b)off topic. Electives (often called "special courses") do exist in many Russian universities, although admittedly they are much less prominent than in the US, and altogether absent in some departments. Anyway, this is an article specifically about grading, so the issue of electives does not belong here. Sredni vashtar (talk) 18:24, 20 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

1

I saw a '1' used to be able to change it to a '4' later. 108.53.80.246 (talk) 01:26, 24 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

кол

The colloquial name for grade 1 is also "кол" (stake, pole, etc.) Boris Baran - ✉ 17:17, 25 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
