Is a 4-3 in science a pass? In the eyes of the system, yes. In the eyes of your perfectionist inner critic? Maybe not, but that critic is a jerk anyway. You got through it. You didn’t explode the lab. You didn’t accidentally create sentient slime. You passed.
So go ahead, celebrate. Buy a tiny science-themed trophy. Or just eat a cookie shaped like an atom. You earned it.
And if anyone asks? Tell them you got a “solid 4 with a spicy 3 on the side.” That’s way cooler than it sounds.
