<p>I hear you on that, Gertrude. My D’s teachers were really invested in the results of their students as well. I know in chemistry, her teacher had some kind of impressive record going with kids getting 5’s. I don’t remember the details, but my D was very relieved to get her 5, not just for her own satisfaction and the credits (and of course to not let down her chemistry major Dad), but also to keep up the streak.</p>
