My feelings exactly! I'm fairly recently graduated from college (I went back after I was all grown up... LOL!) & it the frustrations of group projects is still fresh in my mind. It drove me NUTS to have group projects. It seems like a couple of people do all the work & the others coast. And your grade isn't up to you like it is with other things.

Don't feel bad about not being happy with you 95%. I took a class one summer that had a total of 500 points possible for the class. I got a 495 (still an "A", still the highest grade in the class) & to this day it still rankles me (I missed one question on one test & I still remember the question! Obsess much, Rebecca? LOL!).
