[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]GPA is very important. The only folks saying it isn't are parents with slacker kids trying to convince themselves otherwise.[/quote] Not true. I am one of the parents of a relatively low GPA engineering kid. I am not saying GPA doesn’t matter. What I am saying is that even engineers with low GPAs land on their feet. No, they don’t get the first pick of jobs, but they don’t end up at Trader Joe’s, either.[/quote] I think you just described why GPA is very important. [/quote] Well good luck to you as you go through life and don't end up at the tippy top of every group you join. We all know it is important, but the tone here and on DCUM in general that only kids at top ten schools are kids to be proud of, and only kids who get the best of grades are kids to be proud of... [b]well those notions are wrong.[/b] [/quote] From your perspective, yes, I understand. [/quote]
