HS slackers - making up for it during CC

I was a slacker, and went to CC thinking I could get away with it there too. I was sadly mistaken. I cleaned up my act since then but I still only have a 3.4 GPA and a lack of math which probably gives me zero chances of transferring to a school I really wanted to attend.

But that was my own fault, so there’s no use in whining about it.

One good thing I did do through HS/college is keep jobs, which I thought schools wouldn’t care about. Turns out quite a few of my applications I’ve filled out recently asked about work experience. Go figure :)

And I don’t care what anyone says. if you don’t have the GPA, you don’t have crap. Extras are wonderful and all but make sure your GPA is sparkly and shiny above all else. Some people forget that.
