Serious question. How is that mathematically possible?

Colleges are now offering more than 4 points for “A”s now?

If you have to ask, you aren't smart enough to make above a 4.0 anyway.

LSU adopted the plus-minus system a few years back. For instance an A+ is worth 4.2 points and an A- is worth 3.8.

LSU does this dumb thing called the +/- grading system. Meaning an A+ is worth 4.3, an A is 4.0, and an A- is 3.7. Same for B's, C's, and D's. F's are just F's.

My question is how does he make a 4.0 at all with basketball, lifting, and the fact that its pre-med.

I'm was proud to hear Mays' GPA because it's nice to see that some of these athletes have brains and have a future ahead of them if athletics don't work out!

He’s smart. His dad is a doctor and his mom is a PA.

You got a lot of downvotes, but I’m with you. When I was in college the highest GPA you could get was a 4.0. That was back in the late 90’s though. Anything above a 4.0 sounds strange to me.

4.0 = A
3.0 = B
2.0 = C
Etc.
