10/19/2009 6:49:44 PM Posted: 1 month ago I was just wondering, what do you all consider a good GPA? A high GPA? An excellent GPA? There has been a lot of controversy over the importance of the GPA and its utilization. How about weighted GPA? (Assuming reg class is 4, honors is 5, AP/DE is 6.) Any thoughts?

That means that even people who know that the GPA system is total bullsh!t can't do anything about it and have to play by the rules.

Too swift arrives as tardy as too slow." - William Shakespeare "There must be no majority decisions, but only responsible persons, and the word 'council' must be restored to its original meaning.
