Subject: RE: question about taking modules from different levels


Dear Shoshana,

I am very well aware that D is an exam for a 4 pointer and G is for a five
pointer- and that there is a big gap between the levels of these exams!! I'm
sure we've all come across students who are border-line 5 (or borderline 4);
therefore, it is advisable for those students 5 point students to do C (at
the end of Yud Aleph), then do D and E in the winter of Yud Bet. If their
grades are good, they can continue to do F and G. It is not only possible
but I have heard it has been done with success.

My specific question was the taking of a module that is only for the 4
points (D) in the summer (Moed Aleph) and doing a 5 point module(G) in the
summer, Moed Bet. I've gotten various answers, which means a)that this
question has come up often and b) I will have to ask Judy Steiner!

Thank you for answering, in any case.
I hope to get the answer to my question soon.
Good luck to all of our students doing Bagrut tomorrow!

D and F take place at the same time, B & E are also parallel as are C & G.
That means that a student can sit for module D and then for module G on the
same day.

pointer whereas a student sitting for module G is a 5 pointer. Since we all
know that there is a big gap between the levels of these two exams, I don't
see how one can do it.

student sitting for an exam in moed alef with a certain annual mark cannot
change it for the second moed (i.e., a student got an 80 as his/her annual
mark cannot request his grade to be changed if he wants to retake the exam
in moed bet since moed alef and bet are the same.)Such a change in grades
can only be requested between the simmer moed and the winter one and tht too
has its limitations.

Moed Bet?  I believe one cannot take D and G during the same Moed.  I know
it is possible to take E with either D or G, as E is connected to both 4 and
5 points.
