[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What is my college freshman’s first semester GPA? 
IDK, and ideally I plan to keep it that way.

I don't want to know what your kid's GPA is, but you should probably want to know, if you're paying for it.[/quote]
+1 seriously

Maybe those types of parents have a ton of money, great connections, so they don't care what GPA their kid has.[/quote]

+2 I asked for the first couple semesters. Now my oldest is a junior and I know he's on top of it so I don't ask. For my younger, a freshman, I had assumed she was doing fine because all I heard was this semester's classes were too boring/easy (she couldn't place out of some classes she had done AP/IB) but we also looked at the specific GPA because I was helping her with a resume.

As for how it is overall, she's doing fine. Likes her school (a mid-range LAC) but doesn't love it, in part because 1st semester wasn't challenging but it will step up a lot next semester. LOVES her roommate, they are BFFs and plan to live together next year. Enjoys one EC (band) but a little frustrated that it conflicts with some other things she wants to try so she'll have to figure that out next semester. Beyond the roommate BFF has a wider group she hangs out with but doesn't really feel that they are quite her people. I expect she'll find those as she takes more classes, tries more ECs. Main complaints are crappy dorm bathrooms and the food is so-so. Overall, content with her choice. [/quote]
