ThetaPam 06-18-2004 02:23 PM

I made it again! Kudos to all of us!

AUDG 07-14-2004 03:26 AM

I also made it last Spring with 4 A's and 1 B!! I just missed the 4.0, but I'm still happy!!

breathesgelatin 10-01-2004 01:43 AM

I made a 4.165 last term. I got really worked up about that one.

Here at W&L we have this f-ed up system. Dean's list, is, I think a 3.4 or something... Then we have Honor Roll which is a 3.7 or above. I've never not made Honor Roll.

I'm really shooting for a 4.0 or above this term; I think I can do it again.

how in the world do you get above a 4??

If you take classes that are worth more than 3 credit hours, and get A's in them, it's possible.

That's pretty cracked out. Say you took a 5 credit chem class and got an A, and a 3 credit lit class and got an A.

5 x 4 = 20 pts for chem
3 x 4 = 12 pts for lit

32 pts / 8 credits = 4.0 GPA

The way you get above a 4.0 is if your school does some sort of weighted grade sytem,, like alloting a 4.5 or a 5 for an A in an honors seminar.

What a load of horse shit. You would think schools would fight grade inflation, not encourage it.

My school doesn't do it because we're trying to be the Milwaukee version of your school now or something. No curves in econ this year. :(

Actually, it's not the credits thing at W&L.

We have a plus and minus system at W&L. If you get an A+ it's a 4.333. Neat eh?

It's pretty damn hard to get an A+ though. Actually for most professors it's impossible. However they do like to rock the A-s.

And just to nip this in the bud, please don't anyone try to tell me about W&L grade inflation. There is NONE here.

WCUgirl 10-01-2004 03:28 PM

We had a plus/minus system at my undergrad school also, but we couldn't earn an A+. It stopped at A, which of course was a 4.0. Boooo!

OUlioness01 12-23-2004 08:32 PM

very proud to annouce that i recieved a 3.9 and made dean's list for the second time ever!


side note: i detest the +/- system for taking away my perfect 4.0

lovingalphagam 12-23-2004 08:43 PM

me too!
my dad said that i could be a "sorority girl" another semester...he has this idea that if you are in a sorority, then your grades drop. hahaha, its been 2 years with my gpa rising each semester...crazy parents!

congrats to all who did and happy holidays!

DZTUBAGIRL 12-23-2004 09:07 PM

Deans list here too!! Had a 3.8 this semester. This is my 3rd time getting on the deans list. I am trying really hard to graduate with honors...only 2 more semesters to go!!

Wine&SilverBlue 12-23-2004 11:27 PM

I got a 3.86 this semester and made dean's list again :)

(p.s. at my school an A+ is a 4.0 and you can't get above a 4.0 for anything..)

wanderersarah 12-24-2004 01:48 AM

I made it on the Dean's List for the first time this semester with a 3.625.

I'm aiming for Dean's High Honors for next semester. :)

KSUViolet06 01-04-2005 06:52 PM

I made Dean's List again with a 3.8 :)

DSDPrincess 01-04-2005 07:36 PM

I made Dean's list for the 1st time here! You need a 3.5 to get Dean's list at my school and I got a 3.61! YAY!

BirthaBlue4 01-04-2005 08:57 PM

I got a 4.0, how, don't ask me, but I did!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

AGDsquirrell414 01-04-2005 10:02 PM

I made President's List (3.8+) for the 3rd consecutive semester! Woo woo!

squirrely girl 01-05-2005 12:10 AM

i'm not really sure if grad students have a dean's list at my school - but i got a 3.75 this semester, so if they do, i prolly did.

breathesgelatin 01-13-2005 12:34 AM

I made honor roll again... 4.0 baby! Bringing my cumulative to 3.924!

azdtaxi 01-13-2005 12:53 AM

Deans List here with a 4.0 in my last semester of classes ( i student teach next semester so I do that all day every day instead of class)

Proverbs31 01-24-2005 08:32 PM

I know I'm late but, I made the Deans list with a 4.0. It was a great feeling!

Shima-Mizu 01-25-2005 12:56 AM

I just BARELY missed it... I had a 3.482... Such a close call...

I had dean's list the semester before though... I plan on getting back on it this semester :)

EXiADPi 01-25-2005 01:58 AM

I made the deans list for the second time. I am not sure if they send out letters but on my transcripts it says Deans list. I am happy about my 3.75 which brings me up to a 3.0 so I can now go to grad school as long as I keep up my grades this semster.

Private I 01-25-2005 01:11 PM

Dean's list every semester in college...even 2nd semester when I got a C+ in math...
It's too bad that everytime you get anything less than an A it brings your GPA down so much, but when you get straight A's it hardly ever brings u up more than a 0.01

Dionysus 01-28-2005 12:01 PM

I just recieved the letter yesterday. My first and last time making it. :cool: :o I didn't even bother viewing my grades from last semester because I thought I did awful. I never made really bad grades though, I would almost always miss it by a few points.

_Opi_ 02-01-2005 06:27 PM

I made it on the list.

But I'm not going to get the letter until the end of this semester :rolleyes:

non-greek newby 03-17-2005 09:20 PM

woohoo for us!! we so smart hehe

non-greek newby 05-18-2005 12:21 AM

dean's list for SP '05 baby! finally broke the 3.75 mark

Lady Pi Phi 05-18-2005 09:34 AM

We don't have a Dean's List. We have Honour Roll and the President's List. I made honour roll but not the president's list. You need a 4.0 for President's list. It's 3.5 for honour roll.

epchick 05-18-2005 07:38 PM

To get on the Dean's list here, you need a 3.5 semester GPA

This semester, I'm on the deans list with a 3.7 semester GPA, but I won't get my letter until probably the end of May or middle of June.

KSUViolet06 05-30-2005 08:33 PM

I made Dean's List for Spring 2005 with a 3.7 :)

KatieKate1244 05-30-2005 10:31 PM

I also made the Dean's List for this past Spring semester....even though I thought I had failed a class!

christiangirl 06-21-2005 03:14 AM

I missed out this time, but I bought most of my text books so I can study over the summer and come back full force next semester. If I get 2 Bs and the rest As, I'll make it. I was really disappointed that I fell short this semester, but I got high enough to joing the honor society of my choice, so I'm okay.

Stef the Pef 07-02-2005 03:47 AM

Yup, Fall '04 and Spring '05. Yay! Survived pledge semester without a drop in GPA--hard stuff, lots of time!

epchick 07-02-2005 07:06 PM

I got the grades for the Dean's list, but I still haven't gotten my letter that said I made it!! URGGH!

KiwiJuice08 07-26-2005 09:43 PM

Dean's list all year :-)
