Re: Grades

So basically OS is full of geniuses with amazing grades...

...and geniuses who didn't get amazing grades, but would have had they used 10% of their maximum mental capacity.

Sports gamers must be the smartest beings on this earth. Who knew?

Re: Grades

It is only HS. If you apply yourself you can easily make a high B or A average.

But I have been LOLing at some of these post.

Re: Grades

I had a 3.7 GPA until I had an Office Space moment where he wakes up and refuses to go. I just woke up one day and decided I was done, ended up finishing the last year and a half through homeschool while I went the motocross route, 2.2 GPA because I completely stopped caring.

Yeah, the US education system is so ****ty. If you play your cards right, you don't have to do much to get good grades, which is what I did. Compared to how tough some other countries are, it's nothing here. From a lot of the foreign exchange system kids I've talked to, that's one of the biggest shocks.

Re: Grades

Junior year, I know my GPA is greater than a 4 right now, somewhere around 4.4 I think. All A's going now (my classes are ridiculously easy) except for AP US History, in which I have a C, which I believe translates to a ~4.0 for the GPA.

I take ACT's sometime in April, I think. Shooting for a 30, hopefully enough to get me into Illinois or Northwestern.

You don't have to be a genius to get good grades in high school.

If you're smart and try a little bit you should easily be pulling a 3.5 and if you actually try a 4+ weighed GPA is easy.

College varies much more by major. You can be smart, try, and still do poorly in one major or be of average intelligence, not try and get a 3.8 in another.

Re: Grades

GPA? How does this work, my school just averages out all of your grades to one grade.
