Oh my God... school is easy in the United States. Trust me, I went to school in another country (Mexico) and the curriculum is much harder. In America the teachers basically spoon-feed you everything.
Everyone can't pass, because the purpose would be defeated. You're trying to achieve a certain standard made by the state. It's not too hard. Anyone who doesn't reach that certain percentage (generally 60%) doesn't pass, and that's it.

Because they need to know the material! If they dont know it, they will FAIL college (or might not even get into one!) or they might never get a job... I hate school to, but I would never drop out becasue I wanna have a good life and job!

The point is to shame you into to doing better next time. Also, to record your failings so the rich can stay rich.

To weed out the idiots - I know it sounds harsh, but if there were no F's in school, Mike Tyson would be our president.
