I'm a very good student and get A's in most of my classes, and the thought of...?

Question

getting a B in anyone single class scares the living hell out of me? I'm a junior this year and taking AP classes and I know its harder. I feel like I would die if I get anymore B's during my high school year. I know what you are going to say...it's not the end of the world, but to me it really is.

Answer 1

Well number one I have to congratulate you on doing so well. Stop being worried and be PROUD. You have done very good.

A lower grade is nothing that you should continuously stress over. Later in life there will much more demanding tasks, so please try to calm yourself. Take comfort in knowing that nearly no one is perfect. Besides, in some areas you may not have any control over your grades. Another persons perspective is the deciding factor on many written essays, etc. What may be excellent to one person can be a disappointment to another. There is also what can be termed "book" knowledge and regular "common sense". You need to experience life itself and not only read about it.

Now relax! Worrying will only give you headaches, weight issues, anxiety, and ulcers.

Answer 2

i can kinda relate. I am in middle school, but its like some smart person school, so everyone has to get A's. My problem got so bad with striving for perfection, i actually had nightmares about getting B's. You have to realize that if you keep going like this, soon you will have nothing left to power you in college. People with B's end up getting good lives in the end too. And some people that get A's don't always come out on top. Live life to the fullest while you can, try to relax sometimes. One day this will all be over.

Answer 3

hi there! Congratulations!

im a top student. top1 in particular. im always the top1 student of our class since 1st yr college...im now in 3rd yr. i always have this fear of coming in 2nd...you know what i mean right? I dont want to break the record, i want to be the top1 student till i graduate, that's 3yrs from now. im studying dentistry(6yrs).

But you know what, even though, nobody had broke my record yet, i learned how to release the stress by trusting God. Yes, i still study hard, and yes, i still have those fears of coming in 2nd. But believing that everything happens for a reason relaxes me. If ever, i come in 2nd...or worst 3rd! I believe that there's a reason behind it, to make me learn to be humble(i guess), to work harder (i think so), to loosen up a bit(i strongly believe), to learn how to help others(wow! it will be a good opportunity to shine for the Lord)...and all those stuffs. Think positive!

Answer 4

There has to be ups with the downs, and getting a B is really not something to be down about. Give yourself a break, but still try your best. If you do all that you can and you get a B or C, then you can not beat yourself up about it. Good luck.

Answer 5

I didn't get a B until this year in writing. My teacher majored in it and i finally just got over it. I did everything i could to get an A, but nothing worked. I could care less now because it's gay and she is just an amazing writer and i suck balls. She does think that we are supposed to be fabulous writers though..

Answer 6

I do the same thing. My therapist says I need to stop obsessing about school.

Answer 7
