text: Many students consider being able to participate in activities or privilege that they want. This means that students will want to raise their grades in order to be able to have this privilege. I know I would. Many students don't try hard to do over the bare minimum of a C average, so they could be able to participate in activities and sports, but raising the minimum to a B would mean that everyone would need to try harder if they would want to be able to participate in activities. Students who do not keep an average high enough to play sports would have more time for studying, so that they can raise their grade high enough to play in sports.
