<p>I don't think it carries that much weight.
In my school,
approximately seventy percent of the people do not care about school, and of those thirty that do, about three percent are near the top. It is not really that competitive around here, without curves, and everyone helps. But still, grade inflation is a bit rampant. </p>
<p>What would bring more satisfaction?</p>
<p>That easy 100 in Physics, or that devastating 92 in Calc BC?</p>
<p>Granted, the class is not an easy one, but I keep on feeling I can improve, yet always fall into that pit of easily avoidable errors.
That's what I deserve for failing my body with oh...so little sleep.</p>
<p>I'll be the first to say that my school is not one of the harder ones. It's average. Pretty big though.</p>
<p>joggerblue i guess ur right that did make me sound really really full of myself. i was just really proud that day okay?? dont worry it has worn off</p>
<p>I understand; not getting the grade you deserve because of careless errors is SO exasperating, no matter what the grade is. i remember last year, my math grade dropped a whole level first semester just because i kept forgetting to hand in my hw (the teacher never reminded us- we were supposed to just drop it in his box sometime during the day)! anyway, i hope ur grade goes up (and that you get more sleep)! :)</p>
