Nobody actually checks your GPA. They just check to see if you have the diploma you say you have. At least that was my experience.

Build a Portfolio instead... show that you can add real Value. To use GPA or IQ on a Resume... you would just be saying "I'm better than the next guy without a Portfolio".

Write 3.7 on your resume and you no longer have a bad gpa

>Be me
>highest GPA in the school
>spent over 100hrs per week studying
>TFW no one cared about it and never even asked me for my transcript. I could have lied about even having a degree, not sure why I even bothered.

One summer job interview while I was going to school:
>Friend get's me the interview
>Go to interview
>Owner starts off my saying that my GPA doesn't impress him, in fact I find find that people with perfect GPA's don't work well with others, can't critically think and generally just toe the line. What are your ambitions anon?
>Uhmm ok...I want to just get some real world experience.
>You strike me as a person that just wants a 9-5. That's not what we're looking for but we will be in touch.

TFW my high GPA once cucked me out of a job. Next year at uni I lowered it by fucking around more.

kek. At least tell me you have an internship or something useful to fall back on

>> No.12435259

I never cared about my grades (only I think during the first year of my bachelor).
At that point I realized that, I started gaining experience in corporates and understanding what I want to do in my life. Eventually, few good internships (including one of big 3 management consultants) and a full time job in VC fund. People need you to work, not to learn something by heart

You can lie about your degree even honestly anon. School is a scam, its more of a boot camp for the less industrious. Kinda like those fat camps your pudgy classmate got sent to except society expects you to go because being seen as lazy is the worst trait you could have in the modern world.
