People who have been here for a long time, like Sandy and I, remember when GC WAS happy pony rainbow land. There was nothing but positive encouragement offered, no matter the PNM's particular situation. Then those PNMs came back devastated because they didn't get bids. We learned our lesson. I used to say "junior? LSU? 2.0? Go for it!" I would NEVER say that now, not without a disclaimer.
If you went on collegeconfidential or other college entrance info type MBs and said "Hey! I have a 1.9 and have never been in any extracurricular activities, and I want to go to Harvard!" people would tell you very quickly that your chances were practically nil. That doesn't mean you would never go to college because all those people in college are so mean.
