Why do these guys do this to themselves? Stressing themselves out and killing themselves for a letter on a piece of paper that no employer aside from your first out of college will ever see.

Dynamics was a course that murdered a lot of little dudes' dreams of becoming an engineer, back at my undergrad. 2/3rds would withdraw every semester.

I got an A in statics and every calculus course and dynamics was still awful. It didn't help that we had 15 hours of homework a week for it

>not caring about your GPA
Enjoy losing your scholarship (doubt you had one in the first place) and never going to grad school. The fact your grades are shit to not get into grad school will deter employers from hiring you because they will actually pay you to get a MS. I really hope you are busting ass in internships if you give rat's ass about your grades because if not you are fucked.

>> No.9710901

>>9708451
Your ability to go to grad school will be effected by your shitty GPA. Your employer, when they want you and willing to pay for grad school will want to know why you aren't getting accepted. The look on their face when they find out they hired a C average student will priceless.

That's what indians do but that's fraud. You would probably get your ass sued not only by clients who thought they had a real professional engineer on the project but by your employeer also.

Or you can be me and have a 3.1, win outstanding senior man for the BME department, work for a full professor for 3 years who gets promoted to distinguished just in time to get you admitted to graduate school on a full time stipend.
