For College/High School students - Grades?

Well, yesterday my wife got her grades back, and I am happy to report that in her class she got an A (she was a bit worried about it). That makes a total of five between us for the semester just past. Just out of curiosity, anyone else want to brag about grades? I'll put this one out there for ya.

(FYI:
Desert Coyote - going for Bachelor's in English (Writing focus) at Buffalo State College
DC's wife - going for Master's in Engineering Design (Automotive) from University of Michigan)

My classes for this past semester:
WESTERN CIV. TO 1600 - A
AMERICAN REALISM - A
NATIVE AMERICAN LITERATURE - A
INTRODUCTION TO LITERARY ANALYSIS - A

My wife's class for this past semester:
CONCEPTS OF AUTOMOTIVE DESIGN - A

My last semester of University (Bachelor of Science in Geology) I had 1 A, 3 A-'s, B+ and a B.

Subsurface Mapping = A
Hydrocarbon Play Assesment = A-
Profesional Practice for Geoscientists = A-
Stratigraphy and Sedimentation of Clastic Rocks = A-
Evaluation of Hydrocarbon Reserves = B+
Stratigraphy and Sedimentation of Carbonate Rocks = B

It was my best semester of my entire degree, I miss being in school!

RELATIONSHIP MGMT -- B+
TOPICS IN LOCAL/GLOBAL GOV'T -- A-
MARKETING RESEARCH CONCEPTS AND PRACTICE -- B
CULTURE AND DIVERSITY MGMT -- A-


Going for my bachelors in Global Business with an emphasis in Marketing at ASU.

I'm pretty jazzed since I went to school full time (13+ hours per week) while working full time (40+ hours per week) and still managed to pull good grades.

One more full semester and maybe a class or two over the summer and I'm DONE!

C's get degrees, you don't always have to be the best in order to get a degree you only have to pass. My overall GPA for my 6 years of university was 2.75 (B-) on a 4.0 scale.

I really slacked off in a few classes and did a lot worse than I expected but in the end I got my degree and I work so I guess life is good.
