The internet says I'm mediocre.

So I just found out due to the way the university I'm transferring to counts credits and courses my 3.2 GPA is gonna look like "2.92" on my transcript.

For some reason I felt compelled to google that GPA number since I wasn't sure if that was "b" territory in terms of letter grades and found this book on Amazon.

This book is basically describing me now. My SAT score was a 1200 (only took it once. Also, this is the old 1600 scale), my last IQ test early in high school was 124, and then theres that fucking GPA.

...and this is "mediocre"? I thought "mediocre" would be the national SAT average of 980, GPA of 2.6, and IQ of 95-100.

Protip: all those books are bullshit. Comforting bullshit, but bullshit nonetheless.

My uncle is a former steelworker and a multimillionaire, and has only a high school degree, so I wouldn't call it complete bullshit.

I'm not really talking about the merits of the book so much as those slightly above average scores being considered "mediocre".

ITT insecure people fishing for compliments.

THATS RIGHT, MAKE ME FEEL BETTER ANONYMOUS INTERNET PERSON.

Fag.

Anyway, yeah, 2.92 seems to be this bizzaro magic number now. It's the national college GPA...for women.

Guys average 2.72.

So I'm a mediocre woman, and slightly above average guy. Ouch.

oh boy a thread about GPA just when i thought i wouldn't be able to fit any more school related issues into my life
