I seem to remember that the extra 10 points which the Ethiopian immigrants used to be entitled to on their Bagrut had been cancelled a while ago. Right? 2. A pupil entitled to use a 'milonit' on his bagrut exam can use it in his composition to go from Hebrew to English. There's nothing to stop him, right? Fair? 3. A question that has bothered me over the years- When is it better to do a 4 point Bagrut instead of a 5 point one? Is an 85 on a 4 pt test better than a 63 on a 5 pt test? Sometimes students insist on doing a 5 pt exam when they are really too weak. Is it worth their effort? Thank you for an offical answer to questions #1 and 2 and your input about #3.
