Straight A's


A university professor has decided and believes that there should not be grades on the work we do. I agree with his theory to a point. I believe this since I feel that at times, a student or person may not be able to full-fill them selves to the potential they have, since there brain is focused on having to do exceptionally well to succeed in life. I feel that once you get the pressure on you from grades that it can pull ones self lower. If there is no pressure or doubt in ones abilities and you are not graded, then one will learn because they want to learn, which will cause them to understand better and succeed more. This is all good other than the fact that life is competition. With this, when you take away the competition of grades, it cushions a students life and does not prepare them for the real world. further more if they do get ride of the grade system, they should only do so in university's and possibly colleges. You will strive for that 90% average in high school to get into the universities of choice to continue on in your life dreams. with this once you are in university that is your money that you are spending if you choose not to do your work its your money going down the drain. but it will also relieve those trying to learn of the pressures of grades and allow one to learn by choice and be pure desire and want, it will no longer be a chore to learn it will give learning the proper description of thirst for knowledge.
