Academic Idol - 'Professor Johannsen's paper was zippy. It had robust vocabulary and I almost felt that I could dance to it. I would give it a 7.'

'Remember, Edward, inside every 'F' student is a 'D' student trying to get out.'

''C-minus'? ??" Do you know how long it took me to find and download this term paper?'

'Hey, I think my parents fooled me. This game is called 'Algebra Hero'.'

"I started a collection!"

"I got an 'A' for my anti-gravity science project!"

'Does the Fifth Amendment apply to report cards?'

"I got an 'A' - and all my research was from infomercials."

Examiners.

"I see you got an A+++ in science."

"I think she marked yours in blue pen because she used up all her red on mine."

'Mistakes were made...'

'After what you said about mine, guess whose Mum has just found in the attic?'

"I got an A+ on my math test! I'm updating my resume."

'At least you won't have to worry about the rising costs of a college education.'

GCSE's

Grading Guidelines.

"Great. Now, can I see the unredacted version of your report card?"

'D-plus? -- I demand a recount!'

"You do realize this may affect my review of you on Yelp?"

Anyhow, thanks for listening, Rudy. It's part of the job. I guess you're right: the move to 3rd grade is a big one. There are lots of changes. You've just got to roll with it. And buy a new video game console? It eases any transition. How did you get to be so smart? Playing lots of video games.

GCSE Results.

'We need to start working more closely to try to improve these grades. Do you have my office number?'

'Miss Figgs, as your Headmaster I feel it only fair to warn you that your exam marking is under investigation!'

"This test wasn't fair! No way it's an accurate measure of what I know!"

"While it's true most of my grades have gone down, most were on low volume."
