[quote=Anonymous]My kid is in engineering at Cornell. It’s insanely hard. I’ve often heard that the average gpa is a 2.7, and “c’s get degrees”. They were doing a practice prelim from a previous semester and the exam instructions included advice that if you start to panic, try a breathing exercise. Engineering is also chock full of kids from elite boarding schools and privates. Honestly, I’m impressed your kid is hanging in there coming from a public with no APs. Follow your kid’s lead, support them, and remind them frequently how proud you are of them. They are amazing and doing something incredibly hard![/quote]
