#grades talk

[fancyfade]

Somehow I got an A+ on that quantum physics test I thought I flunked??????????

What? how even?

my teacher said earlier i was trying to go into too much in depth and thats why  ithoguht it was confusing... i guess she was right?

annoying grades talk

finding recourse in the digital pseudonymous diary as i am so anxious about my grades (even though they are literally good (i think?)) because talking about this is anathema in grad school and i do not wish to alienate my peers but i don’t know what the meaningful difference between A/A+ is and if i should be trying harder and it is so silly

i was proud of that paper and the feedback is good to receive and she was kind and yet reading into the space between “great” and “excellent” haunts me. i fear i will never be able to write a good conclusion to a research paper

My russian prof giving me a 4.0 is gay solidarity

My russian cinema prof giving me a 3.1 is homophobic. He wrote that he was disappointed by my final work. Sorry I didnt care about any of the films we watched in the second half of the class. Fuck u

3.5 average exactly this semester! Back on the Dean’s list, baby ;) (if barely)

I was very very close to a 4.0 in programming, but like, it’s my own fault for losing 30 points on a project for not completing it

okay im more chill on the history final now b/c the teacher says even if i got zero points id still get a C in the class

so .... thats all i need for it to count for credit

woot got an A on my physics exam

either the teacher gave us harder homework problems than exam problems to make us prepared (I know i was getting so many homework problems wrong) or my studying paid off

I’m gonna have to take a gd lorazepam this week to check my grades, because I am a baby who cannot handle anything short of perfection and just when I was finally getting a handle on things I found out I am actually a failure

I finally internalized how a GPA maps to a letter grade today. Apparently a 3.0 is a B. I can’t believe I’ve been panicking over my grades and my failure as a student because I got a B in organic chemistry...
