Which means he scored 30. If he scored 36 he'd be screaming it from the rooftops.
Another post from his Facebook page. In this one he admits that his English writing is “not my strongest subject.” Yet, we are supposed to believe that he is a 4.0 student (straight A) with 11 AP classes. That would seem to require some substantial “affirmative action” grading. My high school teachers, at least, would never have given As for mediocre or flawed writing.

First and foremost, thank you! I have received a lot of support because of my posts. I would like to apologize for my grammar, writing is not my strongest subject. I would also like to say that by no means do I share my experiences and stories for sympathy. I share them to empower others. To show others that they’re not alone. I like to think of myself as the voice of the silenced. For a very long time, I was silent. Silent when belittled, silent when labeled, and silent when disrespected. But not anymore. I am now the voice of many. I don’t do this for attention. I don’t need to validate my success by making posts or I don’t have to validate my struggles by listing them out, I know what it was to experience certain things and only I will know the value of my accomplishments and the truth of my struggles. But, I think it’s imperative for me to speak out, to talk about my struggles. To show many students out there that they’re not alone. And with that I encourage everyone to use social media to speak out against injustices, to tell their stories, and to try to make a difference. Social media is a very powerful tool if we use it correctly.
