go for the grades

1. the desire to get the best possible grades by choosing classes that are very easy for you

2. the desire to get a good education by spending a lot of time to obtain a very deep knowledge of subject being studied
for #1
We have advised my younger daughter to select her high school courses based on the highest level for which she can easily receive an A or B. I always believed that challenging yourself meant taking any class in which you were interested and giving it your best shot. However, there is no reward if you try and fail. So sadly, I want my younger daughter to "go for the grades" rather than challenging herself and stretching to learn more. It seems that the higher GPA will open doors to more colleges and also to more merit-based aid to be able to afford the colleges.

(from S. Covey book) the P/PC balance balances going for the grade and paying the price to get an education

econdomy-grade

Denotes a lower-than-"deluxe" level of intimacy, in that the gal always insists that the guy wear a condom whenever he "does it" with her.
A guy should realize that a gal's insisting on just econdomy-grade intercourse is definitely not a sign that the gal doesn't love him very much --- she's simply taking a precaution against either get pregnant or contracting STDs.

Technical Grade Man

Overestimates attraction women have for him; fancies himself a player without any redeeming qualities; Has no standards.

Will try to use you as a drive-thru fast food sex service and when you tell him "No" he will think you want a relationship.

Desperate for female attention, but quality women will detect the distinct odor of lowered expectation and disappointment.

All Technical Grade Men are cowards, but not all cowards are Technical Grade. The term player is not an accurate substitute for a Technical Grade because a Technical Grade has no game.
Eg. “Sometimes you gotta just bang a Technical Grade Man when you're bored. = No self-esteem, no kiss and tell and your friends won't find out… said nobody ever!”

grade roulette

No more than two separate parties text their grades on a specific assignment or test to one separate third party person. Then that person tells the each of the two parties who's was higher. Whoever that party was wins the ability to jerk off on the other's futon.
Travis, John won grade roulette with you, so he gets to jerk off on your futon.
