Sacarse un siete
/sah-KAHR-seh oon see-EH-teh/
To ace a test
Literal translation
to get a 7 out of 10
When to use it
In Argentina, getting a '7' (out of 10) is the highest grade, so 'sacarse un siete' means to ace a test. In Spain, grades are 0-10, so the phrase is understood but less common.
In conversation
Me saqué un siete en el examen de matemáticas.
“I aced the math exam.”
