    Well I can't be good at everything! I've never understood physics ever, no matter how hard I try. I already have an A and an A* towards it, god knows how. But don't accuse me of 'failing' when the pass grade is anything above a U, and if I don't want to use physics in a profession I don't think they'll care too much.
    I never said you have to be good at everything. But if you stop living in denial, you will realise that everyone nowadays considers a 'C' to be a pass, hence a 'D' is a fail! I am not trying to put you down, just explaining that employers honestly consider a 'C' as a pas now with grade inflation and everything!

    What shocking attitude. You need to get out more and realize that not everyone achieves the kind of grades that you do.

    I got a D in Physics too Chloevictoria
    I never said you have to pass everything! I understad people aren't all great! One or two fails isn't terrible but a 'D' does fall under the category of a fail in terms of employers. You can't deny that.
