Universities usually look at grade 11 and 12 marks, but mostly 12 (unless you’re looking for a scholarship, then it will be your grade 11 marks, usually with a condition that you must maintain an average grade in grade 12). But if you work super hard in your last year you can still go to a good school. The problem is if they’re deciding between you and another student and the student has better marks in their earlier years aswell.

Inail Aislin hey dumb ass, the majority of american people know they are being manipulated and we know what other countries think of us because of main stream media. Also every country uses propaganda to say they are the greatest nation on earth. it doesn't lead honest people into throwing their life away. it leads honest people into just going with the flow of things trying to make a living, and become successful within the machine instead of going against the flow and being crushed like a moron. no one defends shit besides the place and way that they live. so why dont you follow your own hash tag and think for your self instead of being a moron thinking that what you just said is original and shocking and a radical crazy new way of thinking to others.so if you are so awake and individual and you think for your self, they why dont you rise up and change the system? because you are too fucking stupid and you think you are more original and smarter and more awake than everyone else and you are being manipulated even more by the system than everyone else. thats why. and if you dont think so then look at almost everything on the internet. it says be original and be individual and go against the flow and do/say exactly what you are doing/saying right now and blah blah blah. and your just another fucking clone. fucking moron. why dont you grow a set and actually do something different that what they expect you to do? oh wait ill answer that for you. because you are to fucking stupid to understand that you can do more damage from within than you can from standing outside knocking on the door. idiot......ok im done. i got my frustration out.

(this may not be the case in every district. Appointed 2 Supreme Court Justices, he began the removal of troops from Iraq. His administration pushed the TPP. This had good and bad properties.

He was referring to when he used to smoke weed as a teenager. Marijuana can stunt brain development in teens: www.google.com/#q=marijuana+brain+development+teens The fact that he became President doesn't mean his brain development wasn't affected. Maybe he could have been even more intelligent than he is now if he had never smoked as a teen. On top of that, weed affects short term memory, making it harder to retain information, harder to learn. I smoke weed every day, but facts are facts. Letting minors get high is a terrible idea.
