- ahoka 9mo agoPeople who pass an engineering degree with only the minimum mark should get some kind of special cum laude.
- pandemic_region 9mo agoCum Shite seems appropriate.
- ambicapter 9mo agoAnyone can build a bridge that stands, but it takes an engineer to build a bridge that _barely_ stands.
- HPsquared 9mo agoAn engineer in and of oneself. (Always enjoy when that construction is actually valid, people often miss the reflexive part)

- gambiting 9mo agoIt's that old joke: "What do you call a student who passed their medical exam with the lowest grade in their year?" "A doctor"
- user_7832 9mo agoNot specifically the same but there's an adage, "C's get degrees". (I guess it's about how even if you got C's, you're still good enough to have a sheet of paper that even your class topper had?)
- toast0 9mo agoI always went with C is for cookie and that's good enough for me. Along with D for diploma. But note, some schools require a C in prereqs to take further courses. And some schools may put you on academic probation/kick you out if your GPA falls below a C. So D for diploma is a sometimes grade.
- HPsquared 9mo agoC for competent (a higher level than 'degree')

- jamesfinlayson 9mo agoIn times past in Australia it was 3s get degrees, 4s open doors. These days a 3 is no longer a conceded pass, it's a failure that entitles you to re-attempt your final exam.
- lowestprimate 9mo agoActually I had some good luck with hiring people that have the minimum marks and huge amount of outside adjacent skills. One example is someone who was running a manufacturing operation on second shift and completing an engineering degree at the same time.
- sublinear 9mo agoI agree. Not wiping is one of the most efficient ways to get shit marks.
