Adam Curry explains the European decimal grading system, where a 6 is a passing grade, and expresses confusion over the American A-F system and its four-point basis.

The discussion turns to the "Advanced Placement" (AP) system, which allows students to achieve GPAs higher than 4.0 through extra credits. One host characterizes this as a "money-making scheme" that has become a requirement for admission into top-tier public universities. This system is criticized for creating an uneven playing field and complicating the path to higher education.
