<p>film in culture</p>
<p>thanks. any more?</p>
<p>****** at Columbia. I think you have that one all locked up.</p>
<p>just do better? lol I dunno dude. how hard is it to actually do well in a class? (unless youre in seas or do the hard sciences).</p>
<p>echo aristo - you really have to not do work to not do well at CU. even in sci or eng. the only real way to fail is to not do the work. the amount of hours you procrastinate (on here or otherwise) would shock you. so it is mostly on you.</p>
<p>and if you’re bothered cause you don’t have that perfect gpa or something, just know, the CU diploma is strong enough to put you at the top of the pack. if you don’t do great, yeah maybe you wont get a job at goldman, but it doesn’t mean you can’t get anything.</p>
<p>hey, i’m a seas student going for chem e. i’m worried because i’ve never gotten a B before in high school but at columbia i’ll probably get some =(</p>
<p>is a 4.0 attainable for chem e? or just unrealistic?</p>
<p>it is…but i think you need to recalibrate. most kids you will be studying with never received A’s before. and objectively some may be a) smarter, b) work harder than you, and therefore c) get better grades. when you become okay with all things, you do as well as you can and you hope for the best - realizing that there is always a tradeoff betwen gpa, social life and outside activities.</p>
<p>It’s funny. When I talk to engineers at other schools, an A isn’t even on the radar. I have a friend a Princeton who I often talk to about this. Princeton is, I believe the only school that doesn’t inflate grades, and all the engineers there are struggling to get and keep 3.2s and 3.3s.</p>
