lol Social Civics exam 7?True
The federal civil service system was created in order to improve the quality of federal employees. Before the civil service system, employees of the federal government were hired or fired, promoted or demoted, on the basis of favors owed to political supporters (the "spoils system") and not on the basis of their ability to do the job. Some of those appointees did not have the ability to do their jobs while others did not even try, knowing that they would not be fired no matter how poor a job they did. The spoils system was at its worst, many feel, during the administration of President Ulysses S. Grant (1869-1877). The civil service system, begun in 1883, required that applicants for a new job or a promotion take a competitive exam, and decisions about hiring were required to be made on the basis of the exam results. The assassination of President Garfield in 1881 by a disappointed office-seeker brought added attention to the problem of having the President appoint so many positions and provided new motivation to look for an improved system for placing people into federal government jobs.

Go on your schools website.ORgrade in class = (exam grade)(amount weighted i.e. 0.2) + (class grade)(amount weighted i.e. 0.8)To find out what you need to get on your exam to get a certain grade in a class:(desired grade in class - (class grade)(amount weighted i.e. 0.8)) / (amount exam in weighted i.e. 0.2) = needed exam gradeFor instance, if you want to make sure you get a 93% overall and you got a 95% so far, and you know that the exam will be 20% of your overall grade:(93 - (95)(0.8)) / 0.2 = 92.5So, to get a 93% in the class you must get an 85% on your exam.
