<p>This is crap. This person is claiming that the SAT score shows who “really earned” the grade. wow, no way. The SAT has no where near that level of significance.</p>
<p>^ “This person” refers to Person A, who has a higher SAT score but a lower class average than Person B. Person A, in order to prove his/her worth in the world, claims that SAT scores matter more than the actual class average. </p>
<p>I personally hate people who take advantage of easy classes just to maintain their GPA. In my opinion, the greatest teachers were those who cared more about what the student learned rather than what his/her GPA is.</p>
<p>There is a difference between luck of the draw and getting an easy teacher vs hard teacher AND purposely taking easy classes to maintain your GPA.</p>
<p>It’s the responsibility of the students in Teacher B’s class to work harder, study harder, do whatever to get higher grades. Besides, most people would have the same number of Teacher As and Teacher Bs in their educational lifetime anyway so it balances out.</p>
