Academic Secrecy

<p>I would probably just say I got an 100% every time she asks.</p>

<p>There’s a girl like that at my school; extremely competitive, will go out of her way to find out other people’s grades (e.g. asking me what the person sitting next to me got). She claims that she “never shares her grades” - she will make a huge effort to hide them - but makes a point of announcing it when she gets a really good grade. It bothers me, but I just remind myself how pathetic her life must be if she feels the need to act that way.</p>

<p>There’s a girl at my school like that, actually, a few of them.
They go really really smiley if they get a perfect mark but if they don’t they’ll be all depressed or whiny (ugh). And the worst thing is when they say, I did bad, but everyone knows they did well. It just shouldn’t be shared with the whole universe that your mark is bad when there’s others in your position as well.</p>

<p>I just don’t hide it because it makes a big deal out of a few marks. If I do well I’ll say it in a content but not “OMG I didn’t know I would get this, YAY!” way.
If I don’t do as well as I’d hoped for, I just say it without making a big deal out of it, esp since there’s others who have done worse than me.</p>
