In my school in Europe we had 4 classes for each grade. A, B, C and D. Guess who felt they were better than everybody else?
mine too, but none was such a dick. also, anything related to school (particularly at a young age), is not viewed as something to boast of (at least in my experience in italy, serbia and portugal).
Same in Brazil, but I think everyone thought their classes were superior regardless of their letter! Obviously B is the best btw ;)
