Are Grades Really That Important

Are Grades Really That Important

Are Grades Really That Important?
	I remember taking a class in high school called “post war America”. I loved this class so much because it dealt with all the neat stuff that people went through after a certain war. I also remember the teacher giving me back mostly all C’s or D’s on all of the tests. This really ticked me off because some kids just can’t perform well at taking tests. I mean, I was a total geek in this class. I read every assignment, looked forward to doing the homework, and even studied because I enjoyed this class so much. Still, every time I got back a test, the grade was always “just passing”. I started thinking after seeing how no progress was getting done, and I began to wonder about the system of grades. Why are the majority of grades focused on test taking? Why aren’t grades on what a kid learned because of taking a class? It ended up that I made a “C-” in the class, and the class is still one of the best classes I have ever taken. I know the teacher probably thought I was a bull shitter trying to get my grade
