C: Hey girls, I can’t study at the library, I can’t concentrate and there is so much silence…

Teacher: Well, that’s what we’re here for, the teachers, me, tutors, and these informational talks…
N: What?
A: You’re quite taken with him, right?

Teacher: Girls, stop, can i continue?
E: We have to start studying now girls…you know, ongoing evaluation
N: Concentration
* In Spain, the school year is divided in 3 “terms”, or what we call them Evaluaciones (evaluation). Usually you have two exams of each subject per evaluation, the second one being the most important one. If you pass these exams, you pass the evaluation, and start a new one with new contents. Once you pass the three evaluations, your final grade for each subject is the average of the grades you got for each evaluation. It works like that in most of the subjects, but for example, in English we have ongoing evaluation (evaluación continua). There’s still 3 terms, but the contents of each term add to the previous ones, so the grade that you get on the third evaluation, is your final one. Here, the girls are joking comparing the first evaluation with first base, second evaluation with second base, etc.
** Selectividad is the exam that spanish students have to take at the end of senior year to go to university (kind of like SATs). It is really important to get good grades in both your final high school years and in this exam because universities have something called “nota de corte” (cut-off mark) which is like the minimum grade that you can have to apply for a degree in a public university.
