But those are high school grades. I'm guessing/hoping that a GPA actually from college is looked at differently. I mean, 2.9 at Harvard is a lot more impressive than Mary's 3.97 from a HS reputed to be notoriously easy. Not only that, Mary might come to college and without her helimom breathing down her neck, promptly pull a Blutarsky-esque 0.0.
