    The fact that my low GPA makes me doubt myself every time I try to apply for a job. I feel worthless.

    The genuine explanation is because a GPA is merely a superficial and subjective rating. Comparing students by GPAs is really comparing apples and oranges because they went through different schools, tests, assignments, professors, etc and each of their elements of coursework counted for different percentages towards the final grade. Beyond that, you cannot measure a person's confidence, determination, attention to detail, ability to work in a team based on a subjective rating. Especially since the parameters that define success and hard work in the work environment are entirely different than success in the classroom.

    Here's my personal experience on "GPA" . It's a lie...simple as that. Here is why, I have a 2.6 right now because I don't cheat. The other students have friends that give them files to answers on homework, exams, and quizzes. I have to figure everything by myself and often pass first time with a B or C and know what going on, whilst the other students make A's and dont know anything! It makes me very angry sometimes cause it's all a lie. The person who cheated would get hired before me and knowing less!! This isn't the case for all high GPA but I know it's for most after all I've seen. Oh! and project classes, many do nothing and pass with A's on the hard work of 1 or 2 people they get grouped with....so not fair!!!

      This right here. I've been fucked out of curves many times because of 4-5 frat kids that had test banks and got 100s. Which normally results in "Well, they got 100s so why couldn't the rest of you?".

      I had rough parents and deep depression too, so I know how difficult life can be. But it is possible to do well with so much on your plate; I'm currently a hs senior with a 98/100 GPA. I used homework and schoolwork as a distraction from everything going on and channeled the negative energy into those works. There are nights where I break down, but I push through it. Trust me, if you really push yourself, whether academically or technically, towards your goals (not dreams, but planned goals), you can achieve them. Start little by little, break the big goals down into little goals, and let yourself be consumed by them so you don't have to pay attention to the external and internal turmoil.

    Easy, I come from a broken home and had to overcome sexual, physical, and emotional abuse to just get by during high school. I had to overcome miserable entry level jobs with equivalent staffing because I didnt have the network to find decent work while I sorted out my life and go through therapy and rehab. I proved myself with honors in the military, a decision I had to make to leave a toxic home and upbringing. My gpa from a decade ago doesnt signifiy my character, work ethic, integrity, or any thing other than the adversity I've surmounted to be the person I am today. GPA doesnt measure grit.

I don't know what to do, though I can improve score by studying again subjects which had low score, but I can't make money to do that, my family too. I feel so stupid myself and just wanna die.

    My freshman year average was 83.65(i tried to convert it to 4.0 scale but each website gave a different result) because I did not study at all until the end of the second semester. However, in my country, we have a high school entrance exam and I was in the top 0.05%, and I managed to get in to one of the best high schools in my country. It's a really competitive school and I just didn't study, so even if I study really hard now, I won't be able to be in the 5% in my school because people were already studying really hard as freshmen. Will they take this into consideration or will me being in a competitive school not matter at all?

    Jessica Corral GPA doesnt really matter. It shows how gifted a person is when they work harder. My GPA is ass because I'm too dumb and not gifted to be in school or in college. ( that's where my depression kicks in) I'm good at other things that I can make alot of money in the real world.
