grade competition

yes! that's going a little overboard! you are finishing up your 3rd year. she finished her 1st year (??) you're going into education. she's going into medical. ya'll aren't even taking the same classes. that has a lot to factor in. want to compete? choose people in your own classes. want a challenge?? compete with dad! don't forget, she may not go out and have a job, but she's got a houseful of people and don't get peace and quiet, not that you get to have peace and quiet. you two have different family situations. love you both! proud of both!

Oh how I wish my teenage sons would have even some portion of your competitiveness spirit... They seem to always just be satisfied with whatever grades they get. And when I ask them whether anyone in their class get higher grade, they don’t seem to be concerned at all, sometimes they even feel it’s none of their business what every one else’s grades are. My first born manages to get at least C’s, and his brother maintains A’s & B’s up to now; still, sometimes I feel they have the potential to do better only if they are motivated by some eagerness to compete with the highest grade earner in their classes. Anyway, if I were you, I’d feel that I have achieved better than your sister in law given all the circumstances. 2 B’s and 4 A’s will give you practically 4.0 GPA too. Congratulations, and I so admire your competitiveness spirit…

Well at first, I don't mind about competitions in school.Besides i am an honor student, I still share my assignments, or ideas with my classmates. But sometimes, I really felt awkward when there are times that they receive more credits with what idea I taught and shared to them.Then that gives me the courage to make a competition besides i still wanted to help my classmates who really don't understand the lessons especially in Mathematics.
