I can agree with that, however, if we're talking A-Level, in my year, there was no A*, they only introduced that in your year (the year after mine)

I think I can program pretty well, it's my compiler that needs convincing!

Well fuck-me-in-the-prison-shower-cuz-I-dropped-the-soap (please don't) a 4.0? I got a 2.833!! It's not really that I couldn't to the work, it's just that I didn't really feel like doing it.

I graduated with a 3.7 in my CS classes and a 3.2 overall.
As you can see, I was way more interested in CS than anything else - but I made it!

That sounds about how I'm projected. I find it extremely hard (if not impossible) to put forth the effort to get an A in a class that I don't care about.
The difference between an A and a B numerically is tiny, but the amount of effort that much be put forth is pretty damn big. When I bullshit my way through classes I usually wind up with a B.

Of course. I wouldn't go through all the hassle of even making a video if I didn't think that we had something worthy of showing the world.
