Help, oh wise and wordly flist
Saturday, 8 September 2007 19:44I have before me a job application for a bank. Of course, they want my hs GPA and permission to obtain a transcript. I fucked up in hs. I'm not sure I even pulled a 2.0 GPA. I'm going to go to a community college now and will transfer to a university, but in the mean time all I've got is my messed up hs GPA. Now, I did well on my SAT's and I always tested 95-99th percent on standardized tests, so I'm not stupid, but I tanked my grades by not doing homework. Now, my question is what should I do? Give them the GPA and permission to obtain a transcript? I know I can't lie, but I don't want the first thing they see to be a crappy GPA. Because I've had some good jobs and some volunteer experience and I want them to see that before they see the bad, but the GPA question is near the top of the application. Anybody have any advice?
