Grades vs. where you are at now.

[WillFromGA]

What were your grades is high school (Ages 14 - 18)? And What are you doing for a living now?

You don't need to give exact numbers but just a "good enough" will suffice.

B+ ish grades to A- ishgrades at my best... I make YouTube videos

[AlwaysFSX]

Does almost being out of highschool count? Because I got the alphabet for grades.. :lol:

Haha that's not good. But Yea. That counts. I'm just curious if grades actually count towards a job.

B-C in high school, I just graduated from college with 3.88. I'm a respiratory therapist on it's way to study more starting next year.

[DoubleY]

Currently my average exam score is 96%. But I fear it's going down to 95% soon... DAMN YOU WORLD GEOGRAPHY 

[Dredgy]

Straight A's in high school until I was kicked out. Do pretty well for myself now.

[WillFromGA]

I'm a Junior in HS still. I'm literally at the point that if I pass then it's good enough. I either want to do something with computers or go to trade school and be a welder. I think grades are ridiculous. Go to school and be forced to memorize meaningless crap that will never help me. I've had senioritis since like 2nd grade. But I work 30 hours a week for a family that owns two restaurants, so I'll probably be there for a few years while I'm in college

I feel the same way. I'm a senior in high school now and if you ask me something from last semester, I would bet money that I forgot it. High school is all about memorization.

Describe kicked out?

kiss me

[Hidden Orange]

Eh, A's, B's, and some C's. Still got a couple of weeks left as a high school student before a couple of months left until I start going to uni. Is "uni" a UK slang term? Googled it, apparently it is.

 

Still have no idea what career I want to go into.

Describe kicked out?

 

I was suspended and police contacted for "hacking" school computers and publishing a tool that allowed students to reset staff and other students passwords and circumvent all the restrictions on the school PCs. So that went on my otherwise clean record.

 

Then I blew up a melon under a teachers car. So yea, bye bye school.

 

I did much, much worse things but I was very well liked by teachers and students and had a knack for avoiding trouble. Even with the aforementioned "hacking" tool, I never kept it secret. I had a big webpage for it with my name on it, I showed all of my teachers and they all turned a blind eye. It was only when a good few hundred people started downloading it that more senior staff got involved.

lol, that is pure gold. 

 

did it look like this after? 

[Joshua Ondangan]

around C-B on most subject but A on math (but now I forgot most of them except those I use daily. I'm not liked in highschool I normally keep to my self and have a blast at night with drinks and women.

 

I work on Cad house/building.

 

Business would be a store retailer (on selected brands that I prefer). sideline work are 3d animation and Photography

[Joshua Ondangan]

not really. you just need to study enough that you know enough for the important stuff daily.

 

the thing you "might want is" Patience, Passion to what you want or doing and the "Desire to want it so badly".

[Recon-UK]

I got the alphabet.

 

Done groundwork/ gardening/ Armed Forces/ unemployed right now, but may be working for a pharmaceutical company soon.

 

I have had a rather shit past, my own strength has got me where i am, which i dunno if is far?

 

Meh, my life is what it is.

[ObeseWalrus]

I get the equivalent to B and B- most of the time.

[toms94z71]

Mostly a's a few b's and one d my freshman yr which happened to be in typing of all things. I am in management now in corporate america, so I am just a disposable number. I am good at quite a few things but don't have papers saying I am good, I should go back to school to get papers to say I am good but school just bores me so bad.

[Shakaza]

Eh, I usually average about A's and A-'s to B's (Dang it AP US History!) as a junior in high school. I hardly put any effort into it, so does that count? I also rank 6th in my class.

[YellowDragon]

I had a 3.84 when I graduated Highschool.

 

Have one more year in college with a major in Computer Science and have already completed minors in Management Information Systems and 3D applications programming. Current GPA is 3.25. 

 

Things could be better though with getting a job, Im in a weird valley right now where I don't have the experience for upper level positions yet I am overqualified for entry level positions. It seems like you cant win with hiring managers.
