Hi Happyflower,
My T tried to convince me that a B is still good, too. It's good, but not good enough for me!
I hate grades, too. I got my last certificate at a college that hasn't had grades since 1972. What a wonderful concept. Everything is ability based. You have to do lots of nerve wracking presentations, but if you did your best it is acknowledged. If it's obvious you just threw your stuff together and didn't care, you don't pass. The certificate program I'm in now isn't offered there or I'd go running back. Even if I used to get nervous and shake in front of the class. I'd rather feel sick to my stomach over public speaking than over getting a B.
