Alaka,
That boy was "Progressively hopeful". Perhaps "hoping to keep Progress" at that
rate per term is risky but matters of the nature can change linearly or
exponentially - unpredictable.

westnile...@kym.netsubject: [WestNileNet] The Boy who performed well
My neighbor is an interesting person. He summoned me to talk to His son about
his academic woes. For the record, the Boy got 6 % in mathematics. When I
unleashed my bravado on the poor boy including a 98% I got in Mathematics in
Senior three Mvara S.S ( for avoidance of doubt ask Mr. Drasi of Mvara S.S.)
the boy responded that "you see uncle, these results are an achievement. I did
extremely well, otherwise, in the previous term, I just got 2%"
Tell you what folks, I was humbled, who says from 2% to 6% is not a big leap.
Though in grading terms this could still be an F.9, the moral lesson is the
spirit of always improving on what we have
Wish you a nice weekend and probably we meet at D.M.O's
Alaka
