Explanation: Grades is what makes you want to work harder. Grades be it good or bad you know you got a certain grade because you either worked for it or didn’t. It’s a reminder of your past failures and what you can do to step up. Be it a good or a bad grade you know what your strengths and weaknesses were and that you should have done better. If you get good grades you’ll be satisfied with yourself and know that you tried your best and try to do better next time. Grades are there for a reason and it’s so you can know where your faults are and how to correct them. It depends whether or not you use that to your advantage and work harder.
