<p>weak gpa lol O.o doubt it top 10% lol =-D</p>
<p>Heh its not that its weak but I think I could have personally had a gpa closer to the top 5 percent than the top 10 percent If I didnt "slack" as much frosh and sophmore year. But no regrets here :)</p>
<p>Yep, my GPA wasn't all that great, I could have had a GPA 100+ had I not played so many games... But I matured and learned to work harder. I still got into BME so no problem</p>
<p>O.o one time sitting w/ a high sat score...not surprised...O.o but it does seem like all of us had an upward trend on gpa =D</p>
