You realize GPA is a relative, not absolute, metric, right (i.e., a 2.6 is considered ok for engineering students at top universities)?

- kenhwang 8y agoI've never met a company that simultaneously cared about GPA, but also had the bar low enough where 2.6 would be passable, and recruited from a top university.

- akhilcacharya 8y ago> 2.6 is considered ok for engineering students at top universities I don't know anywhere this is considered "ok". At my school my GPA was considered just "Ok" at 3.9+.
- sk5t 8y agoGrade inflation, look it up. If 3.9 is "OK" your class's grades have compressed to the point of meaninglessness.
- akhilcacharya 8y agoI think we had ~150 CS grads, and about 15 valedictorians with perfect 4.0's.
- eeks 8y agoEither your promotion is made of geniuses or as @sk5t said your GPA is indeed meaningless.
