[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My DD has a very challenging STEM major at a top 30 school, and came in at a 2.7. She is very disappointed, but I am proud of her. I don't know if she'll stay in her major. She is tempted to switch to an easier major, for GPA purposes. [/quote] I would be too. C's get degrees. Not being snarky. Not every kid is going to get straight A's however a STEM major with anything above a 2.0 graduates and gets a job. Sometimes takes a little longer for the first job bec some companies have hard line of a 3.0 for first time hires. I had a student like this graduated with a Electrical Engineering Degree minor in CS. DS is now a CTO age 32 because he is an extremely hard worker and motivated. His career trajectory better than his siblings who had significantly higher GPA's. [/quote]
