@Shipsarecool FYI, some kids are at college for sports, hoping to be the one in a million to go pro.
In addition, you’re saying that going to school, regardless of outside factors, means that your only objective is great grades. What if it’s an adult with a job and family, looking to pick up a degree to advance in his/her job? They already have a job, so GPA doesn’t matter, they just need the piece of paper. So you can bet a 3.3 isn’t too different from a 3.7 for them, if the 3.3 means they have more time for family. You can make the most out of a great opportunity without making it your #1 priority.
