See what I did there

Based on everything I would give myself a C

Depends on the subject.

Maths, I barely scraped a C and I’d struggle to even manage that now. My DC’s year 5 maths confuses me.

English A*, I’m an English tutor and got a first in English lit.

History also A*.

Everything else B or C.

Terracottasaur · 09/01/2021 22:18

Fairly confident I’m an A*

Scaredykittycat · 09/01/2021 22:19

B.

GreenPlum · 09/01/2021 22:20

C. It's always been my goal to be average.

MorrisZapp · 09/01/2021 22:24

In Scotland we used to call ungraded a 'no mention'.

FTEngineerM · 09/01/2021 22:29

Mathematics A*

Everything else in life Uuuuuuungraded

minnimiss · 09/01/2021 22:33

A solid C but could push to a B in some areas with more effort.

akerman · 09/01/2021 22:35

A* for languages and literature.
U for Physics.

TitInATrance · 09/01/2021 22:40

A academically and logical/critical thinking
B common sense
U people stuff and relationships. Lots of experience though!

Blankiefan · 09/01/2021 22:43

I'm a solid B+.

I would have scored myself higher when I was younger but I've since met a lot of people who are much smarter than me so I've graded on a curve.

IdblowJonSnow · 09/01/2021 22:43

B for my best subjects and E for my worst.

Mum2jenny · 09/01/2021 22:47

Maths/ Science A/B
English C
Others B

worcestersauce29 · 09/01/2021 22:52

I'm vvv old

In the days before 'predicted grades' My pre 'O' level RE report gave me an E(grade)5(effort-lowest)
I passed with an A

TF that i was born in the 60's

Shannith · 09/01/2021 22:53

A*. All brains and no fucking common sense though.

TempsPerdu · 09/01/2021 22:56

In pure academic terms, A*. Terrible at applying it to anything though - chronic underachiever here!

cariadlet · 09/01/2021 22:56

A/B for academic stuff, general knowledge
C for parenting, cooking and housework
D for gardening
E for co-ordination, sporting ability
F for people skills (autistic)

Whattodo121 · 09/01/2021 22:57

A* for the subject I teach
A* for playing musical instruments
A for pretty much every other academic subject (when I did my school exams 25 years ago)
A for people skills - I can be a bit overbearing/extrovert but try to be kind and empathetic.
C for memory - the pandemic, grief of a sudden bereavement and terrible workplace bullying in my last job has had the interesting side effect of really diminishing my memory. Apparently it’s a common stress response. Am hoping it returns....
E financial management - I AM TERRIBLE WITH MONEY

SingingWaffleDoggy · 09/01/2021 23:13

I have the potential to be an A in most things, however more like a B or C due to the fact I’m an expert at procrastinating and therefore bored of the idea before I get around to starting it reflected in the little effort I put in.

SisyphusDad · 09/01/2021 23:18

I'm clever but not as clever as I think I am. Probably B in reality.

CocoPark · 09/01/2021 23:31

B+, v skewed by my Maths and Cooking.
