SpaceKnight of Chaos wrote:No canon as to how Ranma's grades is ever shown either way. There's a late manga story in which the Principal threatens to show all of the grades for the Furinkan High students on TV, and while Ranma is initially unconcerned, the Principal's acting that Ranma's grades may actually be very low makes Ranma concerned. Despite Ranma's efforts, the grades are put on TV, and Ranma's quite satisfied with what he had, though Genma is irked by Ranma's calm attitude towards this. It's not entirely clear, as far as I'm aware, whether he's actually disapproving of Ranma's grades or the fact that Ranma can be so blaise about having let his enemy "win the fight".
Akane's grades, similarly, are never spelled in canon. She has been just as willing to cut class as Ranma, there is a story in which the Principal claims Akane will fail gym if she can't pass her swimming test (though Akane (or is it Ranma?) is quick to accuse him of simply making that up to annoy her), and it's a reasonable assumption for many that she is doing very poorly, if not outright failing, Home Economics, seeing as how her domestic skills like cooking, cleaning, sewing, etc, are all absolutely terrible.

Wyrd wrote:I have Ranma doing well in certain classes and poorly in others for very specific reasons. For example, he does poorly in English because he learned to speak English rather fluently from sailors and soldiers. The teacher keeps deducting points and sending Ranma to the hall when he uses 'inappropriate' language, without ever bothering to explain to him why she is upset, and he also loses points when he uses words outside of the teacher's vocabulary instead of the list of words he is supposed to be learning. A running theme is assumptions causing problems, with the assumption in this case being that he knows the words are bad.

Granted I normally have Ranma be smart, but I can't recall anything in cannon that shows him getting good grades.
