i went down a grade >_< x_x

This is where you can discuss your homework, family, just about anything, make strange sounds and otherwise discuss things which are really not related to the Lancer-series. Yes that means you can discuss other games.

Im sorry wolfy, but it is your fault that you went down a grade.
So your gonna have to quit whining and get studying. (Im talking
from expirence here) It will also stop your parents yelling at you.

I agree with kaegogi about PE and health, they are both important
subjects, they teach you about looking after yourself physically. Thats
important aint it?

Wolfy, what sort of grade is it? Attainment or effort?
If its attainment, I shouldn't worry unless it was below C.
As for effort, try for B or above. Parents enjoy getting stressed over trivial things so err on the side of caution.

I truly can't see PE doing anything useful - it never actually achieves anything as the government minimum is strictly to keep obese children alive. Everyone else will only benefit if they do something on the side. Besides, exercise is intuitive anyway, and common sense will tell you what is healthy. It's a lot easier that it sounds, simply running for 30min twice a week can burn off a load of calories.

And remember teachers aren't as clever as they like to think - they will always be fooled by fake enthusiasm if it's done well enough.

Finally, how academic is the subject anyway? Is it intuitive like psychology, or obscure like English Lit

@kaegogi,

OOC: are you korean by any chance? cause your nick sounds very korean.

Anyway Wolfy, don't worry about it. Personally I think to much emphasis is put on high school grades, your still a kid and people act like you should have your entire life mapped out. I did crap in high school, I spent more time sinking piss and talking to girls than actually doing any real work. But I found my feet by the time I was 20 and at the moment life is great. I'm fit, healthy, got a high paying part time job, nearly finished my diploma and i've already had an offer for full time work. All I need now is a Mrs to settle down with and life will be sweet.

Wolfy, my condolences. However, it's not the end of the world, is it? This is not sth you can't change. I won't start moralizing, because I bet you've already had enough of it. Just do what you think you can to change the situation. I wish you best luck.

An idea came to my head and is now desperately searching for brain

soooo, you went from an 'A+' to an 'A'?
ok, ur right, ur parents are freaks!

Post Fri Apr 02, 2004 3:34 am

Why did you get moved down? If it's 'cos you're pissing about or taking psychotic fits, then it's your fault. If you're just unfit, then you should definitely complain to your parents.
The system in Northern Ireland is basically, you get A+, A , B, or C (that's me) every fortnight. It's a LOT simpler. I've never understood your new-fangled Americian ewducation system...

God damn american society. there's too much pressure on the young to get good grades, do better than everyone, if its not perfect your a disgrace. The HAVE TO ****ING WIN mentality of the country is a joke. Its like telling your kids they only qualify for love if theyre the of a certain standard.

My parents encouraged me to do well, but they stuck with me if i did badly, cant beleive your folks are freaking, especially since its not really so hugely important in the grand scheme of your life.
