School grades

[Theguns]

Well a few days ago i me mum signed me up for the bs summer study course because according to her "i cant graduate without it"......in reality during the school year we had a practice test...the real is next.....i decided since it was a practice test that didnt count it was a good idea to blow it off completely.....now because i did so i have to attended this bullsh!t summer test preparation thingy....its an hour a day 5 days a week for 4 weeks


Anyway im a B,C range student.....when im out of school i will join the military...depending whether or not i stay for a career i will follow family history and become a firefighter....i also always wanted to open a bar, or maybe even a gym......and i believe that with bad school grades i can still make a pretty good living....a little more challening though

So anyway tell me about your school grades combine with your career/ career plans/ regrets

my freshman year i had all A's, then sophmore year i had mostly B's, Junior year was a mixture of A'B'C's and D's, and Senior year was A-F. I don't really regret my grades because i was not trying to pursue some sort of high paying job. Id've probably gotten straight A's throughout my entire 4 years of high school, but girls always mess up the equation. Once i complete college i will become a Fed. or nsa officer.

I was a B student in high school. Right now, I have a 3.7 GPA and I could probably get into some major D1 schools if I had the money. I REALLY want to become a personal trainer. Lifting is something I love doing, and I would just love the job if I was able to implement my lifestyle onto someone else.

Don't remember my high school grades, but completely regret slacking off during my first university degree. I found I could get B's with little to no work and was happy, at the time, with a 3.0 GPA by the time I graduated.

Worked in a fun and interesting career for a couple years, though one that brought in hardly enough cash to live, so I decided to go back to school and study something that would support me first and foremost. Found out that if I hadn't slacked off before I could have chosen essentially anything to pursue.

Instead I had to spend an extra year doing prereq courses to up my GPA and worked my ass off to get an overall 3.9 GPA. Now I have my choice of pretty much any school I care to apply to but I sure as hell wish it hadn't taken me an extra year and several thousand dollars to make up for my lazy attitude before.

I regret not working as hard in high school as i do now. I was one of those smart guys that didn't want to be known as the nerd so i slacked in high school. Funny thing is when class rankings came out i was number 7 in my class which i was shocked and i worked my but off my junior year, i passed a couple of AP exams(practicaly knew the book(s)).

I wish i would have worked harder because i went to a poor performing High school. I mean really really bad scores and ghetto- the average SAT was a 600 out 1600. I could have been valedictorian and them some. I got into a decent school but didn't go, but i know had i worked harder i could have gotten into Duke or any equivalent school. Had i gone to a better high school school, i'd proabably be at a top public and/or decent private school. MIT is a place i'd like to go but i know i had no chance.

I'm doing fairly well now in college, 3.8 gpa roughly but i have classes i can point out that i should have gotten A's in. I've only gotten 5 B's in college and they did have some significance in my gpa but it's not the end of the world. I came close to straight A's the past two semesters.

Just work hard and do everything you can do. If you gave it your best and your all, there is nothing to regret. You learn from your mistakes and missed opportunities.
