Note: I never flunked out of school

, Clearly, you weren't trying!! :-)

Hmm, well, not with that goal in mind. Although it did take me 3 years to bring my GPA to a good level after my freshman year. But, even with the loss of those brain cells, I'm ahead of Albert. Being grounded in reality is also a big advantage.

Lord, you sound like me!! About a year and a half before I graduated, I was running a 3.25 GPA and I sat down with my advisor to see what I would have to do to graduate cum laude (took a 3.5 GPA). Basically, I had to ace every class I took to the end of my undergrad career. It was tough, but I managed to pull it off. One of the things I wanted most was to give my parents the gift of having their third child graduate from college (since neither of them had the opportunity) and graduate with honors.

Good stuff!! And, congratulations on not being like Albert. We need more like you and fewer like him!
