with a 4.0
I read that so many people have a 4.0, but I know none of my classmates do. For our first 2 classes the teachers posted grades and not one person got an A in either of those classes. In fact, the teacher for the second class said on the first day "No one will get an A in my class. I don't like to give As"
Had an instructor that made a very similar comment on the first day of class and I DID stand up and say something to the effect of "The if you trying to tell us that you are not capable of teaching A quality, I want my money back..."
Guess what?----- I made an A in the class and only showed up for tests since that instructor made me so furious I learned the material better on my own than relying on lectures.
Now, the first thing that comes to mind when an instructor announces there will be no A's, is that they never made an A so no one else is going to.

Hah, hah! I am 51, and I can see myself doing the same thing. The older I get, the less nonsense I am willing to put up with. And having taught at a university for 4 years, I am even less willing to put up with nonsense from profs. So far, my profs have been good, though....
