<p>Well, if someone has a poor gpa… it’s obviously embarassing to tell you. And by asking them, they are pretty much forced to reveal the information, because if they refuse to tell you it would signal they probably don’t have a good gpa anyway. Catch 22…</p>
<p>That’s why I wouldn’t ask. Someone’s gpa isn’t really my business or your business. For what reason would you want to know? It has nothing to do with you. Just seems like needless prying…</p>
<p>I would equate it to asking someone what their annual income is – it is just poor taste.</p>
