Message: [QUOTE="CocoHusky, post: 2652474, member: 5823"] Couple of vast incorrect leaps here. GPA not the same as intelligence. GPA cannot be standardize across the the variety of school districts in the US. Regardless of what unique qualities you bring to campus those school I mentioned consider it paramount that you have a realistic chance to compete and graduate. You might be an accomplished chemist for example but to graduate from these schools you are still going to have to know how to write a paper. You might be a lights out shooter but you will still need to be able to compose an essay. Everyone brings intangibles to campus. The intangibles are not what allow you to graduate, being able to do the basics is what give you a chance to graduate. The GPA, [B]imperfect as it is[/B], is an indication of your ability to do the basics. [/QUOTE]
