I'm not sure which discrepancy everyone is talking about..but my problem
remains the same that I point out EVERY year.... which is

 the yearly grade is based not only on tests and the matchonet but also on
YEARLY WORK... and I have students who easily get 90+ on the matchonet and
in the Bagrut itself but do little or nothing in preparing tasks (book,
literature, class and home assignments). This creates the discrepancy
between the Bagrut results and the yearly grade....leading to a "heated'
discussion  between the "rechaz shkicvah"....( And how does one translate
that?? ) and me. Of course, I, a  believer in a yearly grade that reflects
the year's work- comes off as being "inflexible" (the bad guy)....

Every year the issue remains unsolved and I am made to feel that if the
Ministry c omes down on us I'll be hung out to dry...

Why- and I ask this EVERY year.. isn't there some one in the Ministry who is
aware that there is a possible discrepancy
because the work considered for the yearly gr and those points tested on the
BAgrut..ARE NOT THE SAME ?????
(And anyone who claims otherwise has not be in a BAgrut prep classrm
lately!!! )   jesg
