I’m seeing a growing number of students complain: “My grade doesn’t reflect the effort I put into the course.”

Public service announcement: An A is for excellence, not for effort.

The true measure of learning is not the time and energy you put in. It’s the knowledge and skills you take out.

High marks reward excellence, not grit.
