It doesn't make much sense to feel WORSE because you only barely missed something compared to missing something by a great deal. That said, it is a very common feeling no matter if it is illogical. I've many times make a point of squelching such feelings when they come around.

I was one of those, but I had a 2.0 unweighted GPA during highschool. Thank god for AP courses. I got Ds in most of them, but got 5s on that AP exams. Anyway, I wasn't going to bother applying for the award since my grades were so bad, but a teacher made me. Sure enough it was all pointless.
