I prefer to brag if I get good marks to my parents/ friends who are studying a different subject. I think it's bad to talk among classmates about marks because it can cause unnecessary upset.

It's ok to brag about a mark if you got 75+ at a good institution. For e.g. I know a friend a TVU who bragged about getting 90%. He got owned. So yeah, don't do that.

When I got a good grade the other week, I told my family and good friends when they asked me. Why would I want to post it on facebook? It's my achievement and half the people on facebook wouldn't care, because not everyone on my friends list is one of my good friends.

I feel the urge to call bull**** but I guess I should probably ask what they're studying?

The highest mark I've gotten for an assignment is 78% and that was because the assignment was something I happened to know a great deal about and I got so into it I practically wrote a book.

I'll sometimes make a comment like "What a relief, another one passed and out the way" but never mention my grade unless someone then asks me about it. And then I'll say A, B, C or whatever instead of the exact percentage...

I wrote my grades up when I got my Advanced Higher results last year. And I wrote one about passing my first uni exams but not the grades or anything. And when I got 100% in one of my coursework last semester I wrote about that. It would bug me if people put up their grades for every single little thing they did - but no one I know does that :s-smilie:

I don't mind it if they're particularly happy about getting a high mark in something or after receiving a bunch of exam results. Doesn't bother me in the slightest.

Nerd alert. Who posts their marks? I've only ever seen someone post for their results days, even then it's usually 'YES I PASSED' or at the very most 'SCREW YOU MR <NAME>, I GOT THAT A'

If you are proud of your marks then don't let anything change those feelings. If you feel like posting it on facebook then do it and if not then don't.
