GRADES

 

"Dream, Believe, Achieve"

"Grades are just a number," they said.

It doesn't measure your intelligence, and it doesn't define who you are.

 

But for me, it measures my efforts, how hard I work for my academics, and how I get those numbers. It is true that it does not define who you are, but for me, it defines what kind of student I am.

Am I productive?

Am I an efficient student?

Did I learn?

Did I get the lesson?

It is true that I don't have to stress myself out over the numbers, but getting the grades and reaching the average is my own way of satisfying myself and getting paid for my hard work.

 

We are built differently; if for you it is nothing, for us who want academic validation, it is something that is vital.

 

But yeah, being at the top is the sweet cavalry.
