What were your grades like?

We all know Apricity members can almost collectively gain Mensa membership, but I'm interested in how this higher IQ affects one's grades in school.

Poll:

There are four subjects: Science, Mathematics, Social Studies, and Language.

There are four grade percentages: below 70, 70-80, 80-90, 90-100.

I always received straight A's (or A+'s if they were given) during HS in all subjects. In college, I received mostly all A's except a few B's in some really technical advanced physics & mathematics courses. I was a Math & Physics major, though, so it was a fun challenge to me.

We talkin' high school? Never got less than 90% in my Science, Math, and Communication Arts classes. Nothing below an 80 in Social Studies class. I loathed Social Studies, though. I wept through Social Studies. I'd rather lose a pinky toe than sit through another Social Studies class. I'd gladly beat myself blue with a bumberschute if it meant I wouldn't remember how booooooring Social Studies was.

High school or college?

**Midori** · 08-01-2012, 06:52 PM

I was quite a bad student... I blame it on my laziness

Good in Physics and History.

High school, since it is more representative of the entire population. Sorry I wasn't clear.

A good reasoner should have inferred it. You were clear

Ok, voted: i was bad at maths in high school (this changed in college), i was good at languages and good at science too. I didn't have social studies in high school, only from the 5th to 9th year if i'm not mistaken.
