well, grade inflation makes it so that those who are really working at an A level are indistinguishable from those who are putting forth average effort. Grades themselves aren't really relevant to anyone but you and those who care about your transcript. I don't think the motivation to learn comes from grades, or at least it shouldn't, and that's part of why Reed doesn't reveal grades unless you ask for them.
