A bad one

 

I was the quiet one (and a loner as a result of that). Most of my teachers liked me because I didn't cause trouble with anyone and just kept to myself. My grades were average.

 

Pretty much always A's.

 

Were actually the best in my class in late middle school/early high school (which are put together where I live)

But after that I failed high school. Or technically, the freshman year in college since I failed at the very last year of our "high school" (which goes on for one year longer compared to the american one) after a period of plummeting grades

Blah blah details

I failed high school.

 

i used to be a good student until i became bad

 

Me A-sian!

Not really asian tho.

 

Ok student I guess. As and Bs, sometimes Cs. Had a small group of "friends" and was typically quiet.

 

Straight-A student / musician. I went to a performing arts school.

 

I guess I was in the stoners group when I was in high school. Everyone else was in sports, doing well with their homework, participating in charity. The group I hung out with only liked sex, weed, and house parties. They didn't give a crap about their grades. These guys were nothing but a bad influence and I ended up alone with no one to turn to throughout my last year in high school. That's what happened to me for not choosing to hang out with the good guys.

 

Barely passed/Loner...but not bully victim because I looked like the type to go on a rampage...and I'm sure no one wanted any of that. >

 

I would call myself 'a ****ing lazy optimiser' as a student, both at school and at University. Though the higher the level of education the more the amount of effort expended became calculated. I have always had a problem putting effort into things.

 

I just got on with things and didn't talk to anyone apart from my one friend, who didn't show up some days or was away with another class. I got average grades, nothing special, nothing awful.

 

Loner, B's and C's is usually what I make.

 

Friendless brainiac. I didn't have friends so I spent all my free time studying. I got good grades even in subjects I hated. So that's one "benefit" of SA, I guess . . .

 

I didn't go to high school. I just stayed in my room all depressed and read books.

 

I didn't wanna learn anything and I didn't wanna talk to anyone

 

Mostly good grades, sat on front, because teachers suspect less from the ones in front, not because I liked to pay attention, in fact, school bored me and I was always sleepy.

 

I was a loner and took average grades. I think my grades would have been way better if I hadn't been bullied.

 

The lame dork that had an awesome school bag.

 

I was always a good student. I left high school at 16 but before that had always done advanced classes. I think I got sick of studying so I left. Also I think that's probably when my anxiety issues started.

I went to University later in life and got a HD average. I found it pretty easy, the hard part was staying in the damn room. It's one of my worst fears.

 

I cared more about sports than classes. I turned out OK

 

Decent/very good, in terms of grades (graduated 3.9 avg GPA)
Otherwise, very isolated/lonely. People picked on me but it died down a bit the later I got into the years; still wasn't a very interesting nor fun experience.

I only wish I could feel that confident about my academics as I did back then, though. University grades have ruined me

 

good grades, not a very good student. I didn't see any reason to typecast myself.

 

I grew up hoping/believing that if I got good grades/did well in school, people would notice me.

My older brother got lousy grades but was sociable and popular.

Guess which of us stood out.

Near brainiac/Average (40% failure and under). Perhaps A's and B's
Top student (no failure or very little. Mostly A's)

I couldn't really tell the difference between these two, so chose both; I excelled gradeswise, but aside from that, didn't really stand out. I. e., I didn't fail as much as 40%, but I also didn't participate in any extracurricular things, so I don't think I could technically be called a "top student."

ONE time I got a C-...it was this weird class called "Quest" and I didn't even understand what the point of it was. I didn't raise my hand enough, so the teacher criticized me for this. Thus, I started raising my hand more. And then she wouldn't call on me. And therefore I got a C-. :roll

I got a C or C+ in a mathematics class once...my worst subject. To be honest I'm surprised I did as well as I did in math classes, considering that I can't even do simple math in my head.

Aside from those two incidents, I got A's and B's; and aside from the C-, I was on the honor roll my entire time in school (K-12).

But that was all I was good at. I did not stand out in any other way. And since there were honor roll students who actually DID stand out, that means I didn't stand out, period. :/

Tl;dr, I guess I flew below the radar.

Loner/bully victim/Quiet one/no friends (orjust anything of that sort)
Geek/teachers pet/smarty pants (in any form)

Personalitywise, I was more of a geek/nerd/smartypants--I always, ALWAYS, carried either a book or a folder of my writings around with me, and some class lessons like ancient history and the rules of writing were basic knowledge to me (and teachers did tend to like me, though mostly because I was quiet and well behaved--like I said, I didn't particularly stand out, and I didn't try to curry favor to become a "teacher's pet"). BUT, I never got much of a chance to display my nerdiness to others, so I feel I came across as more of just an awkward weirdo. (Strangely, I seemed to have a small reputation as a good writer, when nobody had ever read anything I wrote. Not even when I'd offered them the chance. :| )

I did have a few friends at various points (and at various points I was alone), BUT, none of them fit into any particular clique or group. (There were never any noticeable cliques in any schools I attended, so this phenomenon was unknown to me. Maybe my schools were too small for cliques?) My friends were my "security blanket" who made me feel free to express myself within my limited capabilities, and in their company I could be downright raucous and obnoxious; but when they weren't around, I was very quiet, timid, and withdrawn, and often ridiculed/teased by students who didn't like me.

I was never overtly bullied...my "bullies" were quite subtle about it, which meant it went unnoticed, even when I tried to bring it to the attention of the guidance counselor, who promised to help. Nothing was ever done; I had to change my routine (and nearly end up late for class) just to avoid some of my bullies. And I was rejected/ignored/overlooked far more than I was ridiculed.

If people are just ignoring you, nobody thinks they're doing anything that can damage your self-esteem. And so you sit and become invisible, and fly below the radar, even though it's not what you intended. :/

...

To this day I'm shocked when an old teacher or especially an old classmate whom I never really interacted with actually remembers me. How could they? I never did anything worth remembering. :|

Sorry this is so long. :blush

 

Same. I put barely passed because i nearly failed math so much and i was in remedial math courses too. I hate that i'm not good at math...if i was at least decent i would probably be in college right now, but i have math anxiety because math always made me feel like an idiot... As far as all my other classes i did fairly decent in them though (As & Bs). I had no friends in highschool btw. I made some friendly acquaintances in early highschool but i was never able to be their friend because of my anxiety. I did get bullied throughout highschool even being threatened to be beat up after school. Luckily nothing happened, i just got punched around in the class while every1 laughed and jeered at my misery and the teacher did nothing i kid u not. Then i wuld get to go home and basically deal with the same thing there. I ended up learning to avoid this by eating a **** ton of food to cope and sleeping literally the whole rest of the day until i had to wake up for school the following morning to repeat the process. In a nutshell that was my life in highschool. A boring and sad existence filled with nightmares and reality. Which was worse i can't be sure.
