Thank your parents. They put in the hours that many others do not.

I play GW 4-6 HRS everyday and still maintain a 3.8 GPA without studying a bit.
Um...perhaps some extracurriculars are in order.

This surprises me. At my university there is a placement program for graduating education majors, and Indiana is perennially ranked as one of the most desireable states in which to seek employment.

In America at the moment, you need like a 4.2 as your GPA to get into the college I want to go to. To get into Harvard, you need about a 5.2 -- stress level increases? good luck getting into community college, they might be like "OH! you'd suite our new program. Rehabilitation through the usage of a wheat-based product, grown up viel, and dairy products. AKA McDonalds!"

Considering I did no homework at all in highschool and still came away with a B+//A average, with the odd A+, I come to believe you actually have to TRY to fail that miserably. I'm also Canadian, we have a much higher standard of Education than the US.

Either your suck at cheating or you're one hell of a dumbass. If I was doing that bad I'd resort to anything to bring my grades up.

A 4.0 is straight "A"s, how you can get higher than that to get a 4.2 and a 5.2 to get into Harvard....
Also, community colleges don't draw enough people to turn people away unless your grades are really piss poor, like the OPs but I won't get into that.

Some High School GPA's are weird. At mine if you took all honor's classes you could technically end up with a 4.5 since the "gen eds" were not honors. It's really weird for sure...

In Belgium you can go to the best universities and they don't care what your grades were.

In Singapore our schools are better, I barely study, and I still get honors (the equivalent). Taking IB. So yeah.

I just thought I'd share that.

Boredom, and stupid people make me do odd things, for example.

Seriously wtf i hate school, my GPA is 0.134
You're going to hate working for a living even more, I think. My advice is to try some different subjects; there must be something you like and that you're good at. That will give you some direction for a job as well.

Forget Mickey D's. Learn how to push a broom and maybe you will be able to find a job.

Somebody has to do those jobs. Everyone disses the little man and his broom, but without him the place would be very dirty.
