        Your answer is much more nicely laid out than Griff's!

          Well done. Didn't take too long, I thought the 'suffer' may make you hesitate though.

                  Smallest was rather upset the other day, both her and another girl got full marks on a test. This gained her a 5 [marks are 1-5* with 5* top] and her friend got a 5*. I checked with the teacher and sure enough, Ickle's writing wasn't very neat and there were a lot of crossing outs and so she only got the 5 without a star.

                    I once got 100% on a maths test and came 4th! No, I couldn't work that one out either.

                        Half the class didn't turn up for a French dictation test and got zero. They beat everyone who did turn up (including me) who went negative. I wasn't in the top group for languages...

                            Probably the other three who also got 100% were named AD, BD and CD. So that way you stand fourth ;P

                              How can that possibly work? Shirley the no-shows should have been straight fail / ungraded / shot.

                                No show == 0 +1 point for each correct word. -1 point for each incorrect word. We really weren't any good at French (and I didn't think of gaming the system). Mind you, not turning up was a feature of our group: we had a rota for RI attendance. Each week there were twelve pupils. Each week it was a different twelve pupils. The other twenty or so of us had an unofficial hour off. She never twigged, because she never recognised any of us as "should be there". And I didn't turn up for Games for six years, and still got average grades and comments on my annual reports... :-D
