this is interesting - and maybe could be a subject for a poll.
what is the % of the matkonet test in the school ("magen" ) grade?
francine said that at her school it's 70%. that seems a lot for a one-time
test.

at our school the matkonet test is 30%, the other tests (usually 2)
and quizzes etc are 30%, the project / lit/ extensive reading is 30%, and
teacher's evaluation - 10%.

if david does do a poll on this, maybe just ask about the % of the matkonet
(so people will not have to post if they are giving 30% of the grade
to project / lit/ extensive reading).

for the oral bagrut, the matkonet is 50% and participation in class
practice, teacher's evaluation etc - 50%.
