I'm sure it would depend, for a lot of people at least, on what mark they receive. I remember I would tell my friends and others if they asked only if I got a certain result (maybe like 80% idk). If people asked when I did poorly I'd say I didn't do well and obviously not specify.

People hated me for telling them I got a bad mark. I felt like it was. Probs annoyed cos is get 85+ and lose stupid marks - they get 51% and they're excited. LOL.

Not many people got good marks at my school...

Then there are those teachers who shout out your mark because you did well even though you don't want them to...

No, i'd prefer to snake them so they get complacent when the trials come and my 1st place internal is guaranteed.

Sometimes, I use reverse psychology on the smarter individuals as they have already familiarized themselves with the process of claiming an under par mark. So in the event I claim I got a really high mark, they believe I'm lying. Hence subsequently they become complacent, when in actuality I did get a get a high mark.

Like your attempt for bio? That wasn't really executed well though.

You're a "bad" person if:
1. You claim you get better marks than you actually do
2. You claim you get worse marks than you actually do
3. You don't tell anyone
4. When the teacher asks if you want your mark called out and you say 'no'
5. You don't specify and only give a range which will most likely lead to 1 or 2
6. You don't tell the truth

I didnt really tell anyone my results unless I was asked (this is for HS and uni) - I didnt even tell my parents. It wasnt for snaking purposes or anything, I'm just a private person and I didnt like going around bragging about my marks.

When I do really well I ask people what they got and if they did really bad I pretend to be sympathetic: "Oh...Hey just try hard and you'll do better next time".

But inside I really don't give a * I'm happy that I beat them.

It's not a really good habit but hey I'm trying (Y)
