Younger kid was asking if I’d had classes that were curved and if I hated them. Told them I got an A in a class where I scored 50% on the exams ( taught by Wolczanski) and that it was my 2nd favorite class (after by Coates).

They asked what I would score now. I estimated 30% without retaking the class and 70% if I did.

“Oh, so you’ve improved!”

Love that kid.
