  I won't tell you to shut up, because I feel the same, and have also cried over grades less than A's, no matter how insignificant they may be. Anyone who tells you that you are selfish, or crying over nothing, is only thinking of themselves. The fact of the matter is that not everyone is an A student, and not everyone is less than an A student. I will however encourage you to move on from this bump in the road as soon as possible, once you get the frustration out of course. I would hate to hear it affect you for longer than necessary, since you work so hard. After all, what more can you do other than take it as a life lesson, and move forward at this point? I know there is nothing I can do to take the sadness away, but I do hope you aren't met with too much misfortune at home. Stay strong.

  I'm done with VP. I'll just be around until I get all my dogs and lines placed in good hands. If you want to contact me, please do so through deviantART.

  I know just how you feel. I got my report card today and got an B. One point away from an A. I tried really hard too, but my brother said to try harder.

  I agree. I am a straight a student and there is NOTHING wrong with being upset when you dont reach your goal. Especially if your parents will act like that toward you.

  Im done crying about it now. My mom doesnt know yet so Ill probably just wait until my report card comes and let her find out. Shes knows its my hardest class and how many hours Ive spent working for it so maybe she wont freak out too bad. I guess now I know I just need a little extra push at the end of the year to get an A then. I think If I get one high enough itll bring my year grade up to an A which wont be so bad.

  At my school it's very very tough to get straight A's.. At least for me <br>I've never been able to do it, it's always been A's and B's. I seriously upsets me.

  I just looked at my grades for the sesmester that just finished. I cant believe myself. I have always, always had straight As. Ive worked my butt off all my life to maintain this. And I just got a B. Not a big deal, right? To me it is. My mom is going to scream at me and probably ground me. And the worst part is it was ONE point away. I have nearly killed myself to get an A in that class and have spent countless hours working on my projects and studying. And I got a B, by one point. Im so mad at myself Im crying. I know most of you wont care or will tell me to shut up because Bs are good, but they arent good enough in my house.

  <br><br>My parents will take average grades, especially in math. If I'm lucky enough to pass geometry with a C, they won't complain.<br>Some parents are just like that. If your parents are understanding [which, from what I've heard, they aren't], they'll let you slide this time. Other than that, I know how it feels to have people getting mad at you for something that isn't your fault.

  dont feel too bad. I have always had straight A's. Always. Last year i had 1 B...in Art. So alteast you got a B in a class that was hard. How can you even get a B in Art! You should get an A if you try your hardest on everything (which i did)

  Newf, I have a friend like that. Shes always wonders why i do better than her, and its because my mom has taught me from the begining that I need all As. Since I was a 5 year old child in 1st grade. She always made me study and work extra hard on everything, and her mom didnt. So now I do that without even having to try because its been beat into my brain for 10+ years. Syunn, my moms the one Im worried about. My dad would be happy with Cs, but if I was a C average student, I would be pulled out of private school and stuck in public school(All the ones around my house are BAD) before I could even blink because hes not going to waste his money when "you can do average and fail for free." After Ive had some time to calm down I dont think its going to be such a big deal, because I almost had a B in Goemetry last year and I talked to my mom about it and we were fine. However, it still makes me mad that I spent over 9 HOURS on my midterm project and if I wouldve gotten two more points on it I wouldve had an A.

  <br>My mom has always taught me that and I work very very hard, but I think it's because I didn't have grades until sixth grade. I've also always had that one teacher that dislikes me for no reason. I have had all A's and one B before thanks to that XD
