<p>people on cc havent been good at chancing lately, lol. ive had 77 views but no replies with my chance thread (chance me btw).</p>

<p>but how did you get 78 credits already? impressive. your hs gpa is very low, though. i’m sure schools will care about that</p>

<p>I’ll chance ya greg, but I’m gonna make another thread. I don’t think people understand what I’m asking in this one lol - evinced by your comment.</p>

<p>Its not extremely impressive that I’ve completed 78 credits because I’m a college student haha. I start my fifth semester in about 2 weeks. I’m trying to transfer - that’s why hopefully my hs gpa won’t matter.</p>

<p>LOL, yes i was wondering whether or not you were a college transfer!</p>
