And guess what, it's NOT overreacting. Maybe they know they could do better.
Example: I got an A on my psych test. I cried, because I still got questions wrong that I knew I should have known. I wasn't overreacting, I just know I do damn well in school, and my grade wasn't good enough.
And if you're so pissy that you don't get those grades...that's your fault, not theirs. It isn't their fault you can't get good grades. It's your fault.
Either study harder, or take easier classes. Don't take out your frustration on those who are doing well.
|
I'm not sorry. You crying over an A is ridiculous. I do get pretty good grades. I study and work hard, but I've got ASD, so the info I learn doe snot stay in my head for long.

I don't need or want great grades. I want to excell at my own pace without studying hours a day and getting lots of tutouring. I'd rather go with my pace then cry because I "only" got an A.

Oh, don't get me wrong. I want to pass and everything, but I'm not focused on A's or even B+. Just a B and up is good for me. Once I get into Grade 11, I'll start working harder. That's when universitys start watching your grades, right?

I am not Asian, nope. I'm Canadian. I can acheive A B average. Actually, I can get straight A's if I'd like to. When I study for 2 hours, I can get an A. But it's to much work. Sorry, I'm just lazy. I have a C+ average right now. That's without studying.

So a B is failure? That's a little harsh on yourself.

DarkPrayer, Canadian is a nationality not a race so that statement doesn't even say that you're not Asian. And, how can you not want good grades (as you said above)? If you have to go to school, you may as well do good, right?

I seriously only dig grades outside of high school in classes where there is only about 15+ people. Why? I don't like my grades being decided by a stupid bell-curve standard deviation variable on top of my true marks.
Oh, AZN's rule in the metaphorical sense. I had a nice Asian librarian give me cake just the other day, and I wouldn't mind there being a billion of these guys if they have that mentality.

That's ok. Don't beat yourself up over it. Society needs people like you to flip their hamburgers.

She wouldn't. Getting an A is too much work. Instead she'd rather settle for less and blame her failure on the Asians.... which obviously isn't racist at all!

Universities start caring about your marks when you're in grade nine, possibly earlier if you're in accelerated classes, which I doubt you are.

It really depends on what country your in..In new Zealand its easy to get into university and grades don't really matter to them A (which means achieved on our system..NA mean not archived and M means merit and E excellence) seems to be good enough..Although I always try my hardest to get E's just because I like high marks.

Hey, don't get me wrong. My grades are not bad. Everyone has their opinions on good grades, and mine is a B and up. Nothing is wrong with that. As for flipping burgers, I doubt it. Besides, I already HAVE a part time job and it's NOT in MacDonalds.

If you're grades arn't that bad, then why are you blaming the Asians for making you look stupid ? (Answer: because you're racist). Also if your grades are B's and up, why do you have a C average? It also bring me back to Jillan's question (which you so convieniently dodged), if you claim you can get A's, why would you kill for a lesser grade such as a B?
Want to know what's worse than bad grades? An idiot who can't keep their story straight.
