"Grade-grubber" nghĩa là học sinh học gạo; học sinh mà lúc nào cũng nghĩ chăm chăm đến việc đạt điểm số cao.

Ví dụ
Like Elena Alvarez (Isabella Gomez), I’m a queer grade grubber who was driven by academic accomplishment.

I was also a grade grubber, not an uncommon affliction (nỗi đau buồn). During my first term of high school, I complained to my counselor that my Latin teacher had not given me the A that I fiercely believed I deserved. The teacher told the counselor that I was a “millimeter bandit,” which was true.

What’s more, if your average college-goer does manage to read through her professor’s comments, she will likely view them as a grievous insult to her entire person, abject proof of how this cruel, unfeeling instructor hates her. That sliver of the student population that actually reads comments and wants to discuss them? They’re kids whose papers are good to begin with, and often obsessed (bị ám ảnh) with their GPAs. I guarantee you that every professor you know has given an A to a B paper just to keep a grade-grubber off her junk.
