Do you care about your grades?

I mean i do care about them... but i dont think we should. A lot of it depends on the teacher like if they're grading your essay. But why care about grades when you could focus on your bucketlist and/or do whatever makes you happy in life. 

We get too stressed out from studying and trying to keep up our grades that I know 10th graders with gray hairs

I just took my first test this semester. My raw score was a 72 (my teachers usually curve the tests after doing "statistics" on the questions we missed) and at this point, I don't even care. Nursing school has killed a part of my soul that I will not get back (the part that strives to make A's and B's). Now I humbly accept C's and cry tears of joy when I get a B.

I do and at the same time I don't? Like this has been conflicting for me too for a while. Like my marks aren't all that great tbh. I just don't like having all this mental stress about things I'd never use in real life so I end up slacking.

After paying $38k for my first year only, I sure as hell care about my grades. I didn't pay to fail. With that being said, I still slack and procrastinate, but I still don't want to fail. If I fail, I have to fully pay back my loan and it's worse since the currency rate in my home country is 3x of currency overseas I am using atm. There are moments when I just want to quit, but remembering failure means 100% payback (instead of 10%-50% if I pass), I get my motivation back. It's a negative motivation, not the feel-good type.

 

Also, enrolling in a school that never intends to graduate all of its students (my uni weeds out shitloads of people every year using it's tough marking system, but not before taking the $$) gives me reason to study.

I hate school, but im too scared to fail so I care. I never study tho, its not my thing, and I always procrastinate, which is why I thought I was going to fail my philosophy class, damn teacher made me worry for nothing. But teachers have a lot of influence on your grades, who knows what you might get.

Stop procrastinating. 

In my HS they're curved, but if you go to study sessions you're pretty much guaranteed everything on a silver platter..
