I had a problem and the doctors could not figure out what was wrong with me. In college my grades were some times good, but sometimes bad. I could not figure out why. My GPA was barley a 2.3 for most of my college education. It was not until after I graduated from college that someone figured out that I have a pre-diabetic condition. Now that I am being treated for that this condition School is soo much easier and what use to take me hours to do I can do in about 30 minutes.
So please don't assume that just because someones grades are lower that they are lazy. Obviously their are exceptions, but there are actually reasons that some people have a hard time in school and therefor low GPA.

Go cry and bitch to someone who cares. I don't give two shits about people's medical problems. In the real world, you either make it or you don't. No one cares what problems you are having. College is a dress rehearsal for working life. And, somehow, people have to take personal responsibility if they did not do well academically, whatever the reason.
I was referring to the poster I QUOTED. Her daughter did well on exams, but didn't follow that with the grades to back up her intelligence.
By the way, it's
