I'll stick with the 2.2 guy that already has 2 years of job experience in the field he's applying for.


That post would have come across a lot smarter if you had said a 3.2 guy.

2.2 was a little too ambitious for whatever point you are trying to make. Regardless of "work experience", the difference between 2.2 and 4.0 shows a clear intelligence/dedication gap. Why require college at all?

It's not always that cut and dry.

my GPA at lsu was 2.5. what that showed is that i partied 6 out of 7 nights a week.

my GPA on my masters was 4.0. what that showed is that i did it while working full time and had no life


in neither case did the GPA ever come into play in job discussions..except applying for a part time instructor position with the local community college.
