It depends on the class/school average. I would consider that a bad grade, as at my school, people average A-B, but this may be different at other schools.

Hi @nbp1231,

I don't think getting a C isn’t a "bad" grade, but it’s a sign that you’ve understood some of the material, but there’s room for improvement. Your grades are not a reflection of your intelligence or future success. Instead, they are feedback.

Hope this helps,

CCC grades are the minimum entry requirement for a Law, Tax and Accounting apprenticeship here in London. 🙂

So, you are doing well, just work harder and you could achieve an A* or A or a B too. 😉
