<p>I start to worry when the class is 1-2 weeks from ending and I don't have an A... yeah, I'm a huge procrastinator. It ends up quite stressful.</p>
<p>I guess I don't really worry about grades at all, because not only is just one of my grades below an A but also I can easily bring that grade up. I worry about things like the poster I have to make for the school play, Academic Decathlon, etc.</p>
<p>I worry when I don't get the material. If say it's physics, and the only reason I'm not getting an A is because of easily corrected silly mistakes, then there's really nothing for me to worry about. However, whenever I take a test where there is a problem I cannot figure out how to approach or answer, then I immediately start freaking out.</p>
<p>i worry when i'm on borderline.</p>

I worry when my grade drops below a 98. Nothing looks worse on a transcript than a low A+

I don't know if you were making fun of me or not, but I need a 96 for a 4.0. -_-</p>
<p>^wow, that's a tough grading scale, I would probably have 3.5 at your school :( That's why I like my 4.0 = 90-100 yet I still manage to struggle...</p>
<p>Anyways I typically start freaking out at around C+/B- because then its pretty hard to bring up....</p>
<p>Ha ha no, I was not making fun of you. I didn't even read any of the responses before I posted. That is a very tough grading scale though. I certainly wouldn't want to be in a school with such a scale.</p>
<p>No matter what my grade is, I don't worry until about 2 weeks before the quarter ends...</p>
<p>...And then I panic in my desperate rush to bring up any grades lower than an A, which is usually about 3 classes.</p>
<p>I do alright though. I try not to worry about school too much, though it happens anyway.</p>
<p>What I hate are A-. My school doesn't give A+, so it's like, "You ALMOST did a good job, and now we're going to knock your GPA for the class down .4 points and ruin your perfect GPA." I especially hate it when I'm 1% away. I always feel like if I'd just tried a LITTLE harder I could have had the grade.</p>
