No, I've never hidden my test scores from my family. My grandfather would usually award me with some money if I get a high mark and my mother would be happy if I did but I was never punished so I never hide it. Sometimes I just want to not mention the low marks so it seemed like I always get straight As but I try to be honest.

Yes way back in college days in Mapua course of chemistry I failed a chemistry subjects and I really don't want my parents see it but I didn't know that our school is sending a copy of our grades to our house and my mother saw it she is really mad at me and I told her that chemistry is really not my choice but her. So i told her that I like to shift into a business management and I promise to her that I will not fail any subject and by that I graduated with no failing grades in business management course.

hi! no, i have never hidden my marks from my parents, because I knew what will happen if i do this and they see it later- no games, no money, quarrels and maybe some good drubbing and it is also not fair to them, because they give us money and care for us, just that we can be good educated, and if we hide it from them it will be very bad!

Through out my study i was a bright student, and i always used to get good marks, so there was never a need felt to hide the marks from Parents. :)

Ever since I got to college,I find it hard to show my grades to my parents because I know they expect a lot from me especially academically. Then I just got used to not showing any of my grades any semester, and they just don't really care anymore so then I didn't have to worry. Of course they would remind me and scold me of staying to long in school, I mean I'm 8 years in college now. We'll since I'm already at this age, i guess they know I'm supposed to know and do the right thing so it's basically my fault anyway. I think that the only way to make up for it is to finish college and have a good career, one that makes good money.

I planned to but I could not really hide them from my parents because they were always mailed home and I was always late to received them personally... but then I was lucky because there were no bad grades...or else I'd receive sermon the whole night long hahaha.

Well I didn't usually hide them I only told the good ones and the very good ones first and then like if it had much less importance I said that the stupid teacher for a strange reason gave me a bad mark. I'm usually pretty honest, but I admit that I sometimes don't tell her at all but usually it's because I know I will be doing better next time

Since I got into college my mother don't ask about my grade for as long as I pass, its okay with her... Its funny that even if she asks to see my grades I wouldn't dare to show her, my performance since college was not good though, I know it was my fault too...
