Well here's the deal with the grades:

I was forced to leave high school because of my horrible health at the time. When my health stablized, I got my GED. I scored waaaaaaay above average scores (aka kicked serious butt). I also took the ACTS and got really high scores in everything but math (I had a terrible math score, but hey you kinda forget that stuff after 3 years!). I had a 34 in reading Anyway, the girl was trying to tell me that they had to have my hs transcript and that the test scores just weren't good enough. I told her I didn't have access to it because my HS is 1400 miles away, and will take quite some time for them to process a transcript of a student that didn't even graduate from there. She pretty much acted like I shouldn't have even bothered trying then b/c of something out of my control; even after I exlained why I have a GED vs. a HS diploma etc.

I was never rude to her, I never threatened her... I was just "professional" about it. If schools like LSU, LATech, NSU were able to look over the previously stated academic information to accept me as a student, why was I being treated that way (i never said that, but that's how i felt)? But since then she has written me a few emails, even congratulated me on my wedding, that's why I kinda assumed she's alright with me.


Oh and my Gamma Chi seemed understanding. I apologized tons of times during that conversation because I felt so horrible, haha.
