Quiet/soft (mezzopiano and below) staccato is the bane of my hands

It's a good thing all of my staccato expectations are at mezzoforte

I have a tendency to just want to mash them as loud as I can

It's my way of getting out my anger at the composer

"HOW DARE YOU PUT THOSE SEMIQUAVERS LIKE THAT IN THE LEFT HAND I HATE YOU"

Eh I don't find it that hard playing them at mf. I just tap the piano with a reasonable amount of force.

They're not that bad. All I hate are just these staccato double octaves and how fast I have to play arpeggios (+7ths) at

What rank is your school?

Around 400.
Every year we get a 99+ but we've never gotten 99.9+.
Im determined to be the first, but i have serious competition. I think my cohort is the strongest cohort we've had. I can see plenty of 90+ and hopefully i get 99.9+. I think after our year the rank will increase to like 300's, but then just collapse to like 500+ after us lol.

Y not.

Also, cleaning up a spilt drink shouldn't take a whole weekend trading day, should it?
