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

Vector, quit making the rest of us look bad![/rebellion]

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.

No, that's how ours is supposed to work, too
My happy: 100% practical & 92.1% on my written finals for Cisco 1. Next week starts Cisco 2.

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

[Virex]

Of course, but we can't be too sudden about that. First, it should be implemented for trucks and tractors, then for buses, followed by smaller motor vehicles and finally, at the end of the 5 year period, cyclists will have to switch lanes too

[ToonyMan]

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

[kaijyuu]

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

And get back into the commonwealth while we are making all this change, maybe? Please USA, come home, Canada and Australia miss you, and England cries herself to sleep at night. Your breaking this family apart!

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)
