In the US though, grades are irrelevant, the only things that matter for "free school money" are your ACT/SAT grades, your parents income, winning contests and having friends in high places.
Lies and slander.  My SAT score wasn't that good, my parents don't have an income, I didn't win a contest, and I don't have any of your cynical "connections".

Your parents don't have an income, as long as you didn't screw up on the SAT that qualifies you for basic Pell grants.

Weird system you Americans have, over here you get more if your parents make less, to make up for the lower amount you would get from them.

Many contests and schools will, however, not bother to read your applications if you have a GPA below some arbitrary cutoff. Usually only the popular ones, because they have to cut their workload and decided it was as good a way as any.

Hey, don't complain at me for kicking reason to the curb :3

I suddenly realized what I want to do when I get older, which has been a mystery to me for a long time. I want to fucking backpack through Europe, and I have no idea why.
Because it's there. Next, get six of your buddies, grow beards, take a bunch of pickaxes, booze, and mushrooms, and embark on Everest.

In the days when Sussman was a novice, Minsky once came to him as he sat hacking at the PDP-6.
“What are you doing?”, asked Minsky. “I am training a randomly wired neural net to play Tic-Tac-Toe” Sussman replied. “Why is the net wired randomly?”, asked Minsky. “I do not want it to have any preconceptions of how to play”, Sussman said.
Minsky then shut his eyes. “Why do you close your eyes?”, Sussman asked his teacher.
“So that the room will be empty.”
At that moment, Sussman was enlightened.

Virex: that is exactly what I mean, if your parents are low income, you qualify for certain basic grants. The Pell Grant is often enough for a junior college, but not enough to go to a university.

I have a 3.Something GPA. Also, congratulations to anybody that manages to get their GPA above 4.0 and doesn't fudge on your important tests (ACT/SAT)

We should switch what side of the road we drive on at some point.  That'll fix everything.  Fucking backwards Amexricans right

We need to convert over to the metric system too.  SI and all that.

If we switched over to metric, I'd certainly be posting about it in this thread.

Quote from: Chesterton
For, in order that men should resist injustice, something more is necessary than that they should think injustice unpleasant. They must think injustice absurd; above all, they must think it startling. They must retain the violence of a virgin astonishment. When the pessimist looks at any infamy, it is to him, after all, only a repetition of the infamy of existence. But the optimist sees injustice as something discordant and unexpected, and it stings him into action.

Cool to know I'm ahead of someone in the same thing, even though my schedule is a bit odd because the place uses the high school schedule, not the college one. (In Cisco 3, had 1,2, and A+ class last year)

It's known as the Oppai-Kaiju effect. The islands of Japan generate a sort anti-gravity field, which allows breasts to behave as if in microgravity. It's also what allows Godzilla and friends to become 50 stories tall, and lets ninjas run up the side of a skyscraper.
