> You win by the grade earned, however it was obtained.

That's not really true. At least in my experience.

Since I graduated nobody cared about my grades at all. On the other hand everyone cared if I can do stuff.

When I was applying for Uni my grades mattered very little and my performance on standarised and proctored tests mattered a lot.

I guess it might be different where you have grown up?
