Is it ok to ask other students about their GPA?

i do hate when people are modest about their grades though.

Really? I hate when people aren’t modest about their grades. “I got a *****ing 30 on the ACT. I smoked it! What did you get?” Me: “…32…” “Oh… Nice, man…” Because you weren’t modest, I feel like a dick. When I’m not modest, I feel like I’m belittling everyone.</p>

I never tell what my gpa is after I ask unless they subsequently ask me as well. It would just seem like I’m fishing for vindication if I come out and say my gpa when they didn’t ask.

In my experience, it will seem like that whether you intended for it or not. I guess the exception would be if your score was pretty low and you obviously expected theirs to be higher.</p>
