I don't think I've ever gotten actual "grades" on anything other than graduation/exit exams.
What kind of things do you get graded on?

[Zloff]

classwork(labs, projects, presentations, etc), homework, tests(smaller exams throughout the period), quizzes(smaller tests), and then the final exams every trimester

that's how it is for my old school at least. Most schools have semesters and idk about what other kinds of graded work

[hillkill]

i feel the same way. during my freshman year i completely forgeted up on my grades (did zero homework and only passed 2 classes out of 8), and now i have an extremely low chance of getting into the only college in my area. can't even get into a computer major now.

smaller than ants. we're probably just dust particles or simple prokaryotes compared to the ever expanding universe

Now if your grades mattered to the point where you'll be able to colonize other planets, sure. Until we start colonizing planets then nothing matters. The human race will slowly die out if this does not happen.
