If I got a 3.1 at an Ivy League

<p>It is a wrong path in any goal in life to set standards lower than the ones that will allow you to accomplish this goal. Why, what a waste! You need to get used to have as high standards as possible (like GPA=4.0) and develop a plan with various options to work towards this goal. That is how successful people operate in various stages of their lives. Loosers tell themselves that GPA=4.0 is not possible. DO NOT DO IT TO YOURSELF, DO NOT BE A LOSER. Remember, you yourself could be your best friend as well as worst enemy. It is up to you to choose!</p>
