    Should students’ grades in Gym affect their GPA? In the United States today, the topic of whether Gym grades should affect GPA is a controversial one. The grades a student receives in Gym should not account for in their academic GPA. Gym grades should not be considered in a student’s GPA because multiple factors control how well you do.

    I think that kids should get paid for having good grades for one reason. I am a student and I think that if we would get paid for making good grades a lot more kids would try.

    to how you scored our AP exams. In class you had told us that you would grade our exams exactly like the AP. However, when I placed the scores you gave me into an official exam calculator (recognized as the best and most accurate in the world and based off the 2015 grading curve) I received a 4 instead of a 3. Do you know why this would be the case? I am very concerned because if my true grade on the test is a 4, my test grade would raise 16% which is dire if I am to maintain my streak of never having

    Overall, I feel quite pleased with my current grade situation. Everyone always feels that assurance they can try harder.

    hardest to get good grades. Even if I don't feel like studying I know i have to look it over in order to hopefully get a better grade. To study, I look over the terms or what is being studied a couple times over. After looking it over a couple times, I may test myself and see what I need to study more. I am good at getting my homework done. If I am done with the homework for tomorrow, I see if I can get any done or started for later in the week to be prepared. My goal is to get good grades in class and

Many people in our world today believe they are a nuiscance, while others argue that the system’s long life only proves it’s competence.

    Should Students’ Grades in Gym Class Affect Their GPA? I personally do not agree with grades in gym classes affecting students’ grade point averages. I believe that gym class should be strictly for fun. There are many students who are not very athletic. Many females do not enjoy playing sports or running a mile. I do not think it is fair that schools make their students run a full mile, time them on it, and grade them on their times. Certain students are not great runners and the fact that
