Alliya Rashid June 30‚ 2014 Why Grades Are Not Good For Students Every student wants to brag that he or she is an “A student”. In schools‚ students’ abilities and levels of intelligence can be measured by a series of letters from A to F on a piece of paper.

I guess I was just stereotyping because that’s not at all what it had turned out to be.
