Current Events > Were you a straight A student?

(+) Yeah! (+)

No. I rarely got As at school.

3.7 in hs and college

Lol nah

magna cum laude undergrad, straight As in grad school

At one point. Then I stopped doing homework. >_> High test grades kept me afloat lol.

I just turned in whatever I did right before class and generally got A's.

No, other then Science and art, I was a D student.

No, but Im pretty sure I got all As & Bs in high school. I didn't really apply myself to do advanced classes or get perfect grades, i was just good at tests basically.

Only for the useful stuff like Math and Science. Useless shit like Reading and Writing I got B's to C's in lol

I was smart, eager and worked hard but no.

No, I lived around the 2.8 land to 3.2 land. School work was a drag and negatively impacted my quality of life. Much of it seemed frivolous. My school system plied on the homework and homework grades made up like 30 percent of your final grades in a course term. I made all efforts to get work done during the day -- such as in study hall or class breaks. However, I didn't like doing it at home -- rarely did so. As a result, my grades turned out middling because my homework scores generally incorporated several zeroes.

I have a post graduate degree in real life. I took college far more seriously since I chose to go and my parents were paying.

Some context; the grading system used in high schools here goes NA (not achieved), A (achieved), M (merit) and E (excellence) rather than F D C B A.

Nope. I got near straight E's in Japanese (occasional M's), and the odd E with mostly M's in science and maths. Lucky to get A's in English.

Mostly, but I wasn't perfect. First C I ever got was on my last ever report card, I think in part cause I didn't do all the community service I needed to (was kinda hard to do any)

I had high test scores but pretty much never did homework.

Pretty much, at least through high school. I got some Cs and Bs in undergrad, but went back to straight As in grad school.

High 2s in HS. Because I barely did the work.

3.933 so far in college with 6 classes left.

I got a B in financial accounting.

I was an As and Bs kid in high school with a couple of Cs in classes like stats and chemistry that I just wasn't interested in

10 years later when I finally went to college I was a straight As kid though. I was paying with my GI Bill and was terrified of what could happen if I failed a class.

It was a mixed bag in grade school and high school, since I had a bad habit of simply not doing the work in any class I wasn't interested in.

But I had a hell of a streak in college (including grad school).

Just barely made 3.0.

So, nope.

Not really in high school, aside from English and Classical Studies/History. I was just alright at Economics, Statistics and Physics.

In university, yes. Though I ended up focussing on disciplines I enjoyed (Film Studies, Philosophy, Sociology and Writing Studies) and eventually dropped some harder ones like Law and Linguistics.

In college, yes.

In high school, no. I was more a A/B student with an occasional C in a couple of math classes. I honestly didn't apply myself in high school as much as I would have liked to, looking back at it.
Got my shit together once Uni rolled around though.

No I have always been bad at writing. So most of my report cards were all A's with a C or D for English class

If I turned work in, yes. But I often didnt.

We tend to place value and put forth effort in things that cost us money.

No. I was a bi A student.

My school didn't have grades but I got curious so I asked the teachers and they all said I'd easily have an A in their classes.

Until about 7th grade. Then I became a solid B/C student that graduated with a 2.9

I was a straight A student until I got viral meningitis the summer before 9th grade. I started having seizures randomly after that. The medication they put me on to control the seizures gave me really bad short term memory loss.

There were a lot of times where the teacher would be teaching us stuff and I would understand it all... By the time the teacher passed out work sheets so we could practice what we learned, I forgot it all.

I always had a GPA somewhere in the 3.0-3.8 range from elementary through high school. Undergrad and grad school I had 3.8-3.9 range. I put a lot more effort into college since I was paying to be there.
