Grade A

Getting an A is the greatest feeling any student can have. I remember when I was in high school that getting a B was almost as great. Reading this article made me think that some people may have things just a little bit wrong. I don't necessarily agree that things have been dumbed down for students making it easier to get an A. Coming back to college I noticed that what used to be average and OK now seems to be below average and a disappointment. I don't agree that things are being dumbed down for students. I think that students have learned to fight harder for grades that have been pushed at them throughout the years. Parents and teachers have asked for the best and students have answered. Have things been dumbed down, not necessarily. Do things need to be adjusted for the hybrid students that our system has created, probably.
