点てん取とり虫むし

noun

grade-grubber; swot; drudge

Derogatory term for a student who obsessively chases high marks, often at the expense of social life or genuine learning. Comparable to 'nerd' or 'grind' in English, but with a stronger focus on grades.

• あいつは点てん取とり虫むしで、テストの点てん数すうしか気きにしない。

  That guy is a grade-grubber; he only cares about test scores.
