The first quantitative grading system?

Latest comment: 16 years ago1 comment1 person in discussion

The claim that he invented quantitative grading for university exams doesn't quite fit with the fact that he himself went through a graded mathematics degree beforehand. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 92.236.81.5 (talk) 13:28, 3 February 2010 (UTC)Reply
