Your thinking is strange to me.
Let’s explore this from another angle:
So you’re a straight A student in High School.  You’ve worked hard to get these grades.  You didn’t cheat, and although some do, most good students don’t.  Maybe you’re smarter than the other students not getting good grades. Maybe you work harder.  Maybe it’s a [...]
