What does everyone think of it?
I used to be extremely driven about making 4.0s during undergrad, but right now, I'm just aiming to make straight B's in my three grad courses. The reading load is too immense to read meticulously while working in the research lab, teaching Stats labs, grading tests, and meeting with students. I resort to skimming or reading the abstracts.
The instructors are also grading extremely rigorously. I thought I did a great job on a few assignments and was only given fair grades on them. They would've been A's in undergrad.
My student manual says grades should fall second to research and the connections we form, but there's still this undergrad in me who wants a 4.0.
Thoughts?
