Today, my friend asked me how I did on my test. I got an 85%. She asked me what my secret was, and I said "I'm just smart". She replied, "No you're not. How did you pull it off?" FML

Today, we were taking a bio quiz and I understood the subject, so the people sitting behind me asked me to help them out. Being a kind fellow classmate, I did. When the teacher got suspicious, she asked the class, "How are all of you getting the same answers?" everyone pointed directly at me. FML

Today, my math TA showed the class how one of her "dumb" students answered a test question. Everyone laughed as she wrote out the students answer, including myself, until I looked down at my answer sheet and saw that I submitted an identical answer. FML

Today, in calculus, our substitute teacher told me I was smart. Everybody in the class, including my friends, burst out laughing. FML

Today, I took my Spanish test, and I felt very confident. I got the test back later, and saw my teacher had written on it: "Congrats on the 94%, but I know you cheated." FML

Today, I found out I got a 97 on my physics final exam. I was curious about the question I missed, so I went up to my teacher and asked. He was very confused and checked my grade again before telling me, "Oh my bad, it was meant to be a 79." FML

Today, I cheated on a math test by writing a couple of equations on my hand. Totally satisfied, I handed my test in, feeling like I had aced it. As I was heading toward the door, I happily waved goodbye to my teacher. She saw everything. FML

Today, I passed my math test with flying colors. My dad thought I had cheated, so he emailed the school and told them that I had. They lowered my grade. FML

Today, as I went into my calculus class, the teacher announced that someone had received a negative grade on the test we were getting back. I laughed and said, "Which f*cker managed to get a negative?" Turns out I'm the dumbass. FML

Today, I found out I've miserably failed a college exam. My friend had agreed to pass me answers if I needed them, since I've hardly studied this year. We were on the phone when she said, "Oh, those answers were bullshit. Serves you right, huh?" FML

Today, I was accused of cheating on our math test, instantly granting me a perfect zero. How? I used the wrong formula on a problem, but ended up with the correct answer. FML

An 85? That's not that great. Most people I know get above 95.

If she's impressed by an 85, clearly she's the dumb one.

In college I took a nuclear theory class; it was graded on a curve and the highest grade (got an A) was 53%. For the semester.

To all those saying that 85% isn't a good grade - it depends on the exam and the level. Also, if it's a subject the OP is good at or not. At uni here in the UK a 1st class degree is 70% or higher, 2:1 60%, 2:2 50%, 3rd class 40%. Below 40% you fail. Some courses have slight variations on that but that's true. Depending on the module I'm happy with anything over 60/65% overall. One of my modules I'll just be happy to pass because the lecturer is unhelpful but the others I'd be unhappy if I got below 65% overall. It just depends on the level and abilities of the student.

If you looked at some of the other comments then you'd see that grades aren't the same everywhere. (Post #79 explains grades for where the OP is from.)
