| Khuutra said: I just I just have to disagree with the premise of the htread. I went through a period of bad depression where I shut down for about 18 months straight and it shot my GPA to Hell, but I got the worst grades removed from my record and I intend to go back to school as soon as I'm able to (as soon as my residency comes through). It's always better to have an education than not, regardless of what your GPA is like. |
What I am trying to do here is warn people to think carefully about their future. A college education in a field of interest may not lead to any job at the end of it, let alone a successful career. A career counselor's advice should be sought before taking on tens of thousands in debt for a college degree.
You would hate to be in a position where you are tens of thousands of dollars in debt,a college degree with an average or low GPA, penniless and unemployable. Three or four years of your life wasted for nothing but a lousy piece of paper.
