[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I mean, if your kid wants to get good grades in college, they will have to do some work. Does that make them a grinder? Depends on the major and ability to handle the load.[/quote] NP: I think of grinders as students that treat college like a job (e.g., prestige, ambition, money) and present as pre-professionals. I think that is different than someone who is smart, nerdy, or a geek that earns good grades but loves the topic or loves to learn. Nothing wrong with both, but I see the populations as different.[/quote] "grind" means work really hard. All the time. At the expense of competing activities, whether those activities would have been playing cyberpunk or frat life. Grind by definition means you're joyless most of the time. Whether you're a dork or whether you couldn't make a friend no matter how how hard you tried or you're gunning for Yale Law and only Yale Law. [/quote]
