[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Is OP a troll? I have never heard anyone from MIT reference their GPA at MIT (other than as a line on their CV). Most MIT students (especially those that become "scientists") learn quickly that at MIT, GPA doesn't matter - passion does.[/quote] No, you're just not reading closely enough. The OP has described the situation quite well in both their original and follow up post about the research project posters. I completely understand how their child would be a bit overwhelmed by amazingness, but their response about most of those kids being juniors or seniors was spot on. The 5.0 reference was just trying to say that they didn't get perfect grades at MIT, that's all.[/quote]
