In this thread, we brag about the good grades we get...

Since GLO's are at least 1/3 about scholarship (3 S's: Scholarship, Service, Socialness), I figured we could do something like the Smarty Pants idea my chapter does. Each time you get an A or a B, you get a large or small sticker on a cut-out pair of "pants" we have hanging in the hall. Sooo...brag about good grades here!

I just found out I got an 80 on a finance test!!!

I didn't think I'd done that well. It wasn't especially hard, just a lot of stuff to remember. But yay!

Well, not to brag, but I had a 4.0 last quarter and fall quarter. Our chapter has a "smarty pants" envelope in the house to slip in a piece of paper to nominate a sister who got good grades that week. But I really really like the idea of the pants outside your door..i'd get a chuckle out of it.

Eh, it's still something on topic about doing well academically. Rock on!

I got a Distinction on my "Images of the Capture of Helen in Art and Literature: from Antiquity to 1700" paper. I worked my ass off writing the bloody thing, and want to refine it to publish.
It's really difficult to get a high mark as a postgraduate in my department so yay for me.

[Distinction is a 17+/20, by the way]

I got an 85 on my Spanish interview yesterday! My partner and I were nervous because this time we had to converse in front of the teacher for 8-10 minutes and we weren't supposed to have a dialogue already prepared. Thankfully we got a topic that we knew the vocab for!

I've been invited to join the Alpha Kappa Mu academic honorary.

I just got a perfect A on my lesson plan for Principles of Teaching.

I also got an A on my Content Outline in that class.

My Shadow Study of a Student in the same class was also an A.

I got an A on my Lit. for Young Adults midterm which consisted of one question to be answered in no less than 5 pages.

I got an A on my History of English Language paper.

I made a 90 on my International Conflict paper. It was about the Falklands war. I think I'm the only person to ever make an A on one of his papers. My life is okay now!

I got a 4.0 last semester! And that was with 1 of the worst teachers ever. He didn't even have due dates for his assignments! LOL . . .

Woohoo! Our 3 undergraduate daughters all made the Dean's List! And our daughter who just got her master's made a 3.75 and got into Phi Kappa Phi!
