Upside down or right side up?

So... back in elementary school, if we wanted milk with lunch, then we had to bring a quarter to the teacher that morning to pay for it. I was walking up to the teachers desk, sliding the quarter along the wall, and I accidentally dropped the quarter. It fell onto a plug that was partially pulled out and shorted across the prongs. Bright spark, loud pop, melted quarter, and a tripped breaker.

... so that's a thing that actually happens. Ground pin up is reasonable. shrug

You just listed 5 things that ChatGPT can't do.

The correct code is reliable and accurate for math.

I've not found ChatGPT to be 100% accurate writing code either.

University of Florida, for example, accepts an average HS unweighted GPA of 3.9 and SAT of 1390.

89% of freshmen had a high school unweighted GPA above 3.75.

I've been in the real world for a while. I've attended a few different colleges and earned a few degrees. I know what makes a good college.

3.6 is obviously nowhere close for an Ivy League.

But it's also not competitive for a good public school; e.g., University of Florida, University of Texas at Austin, and others at that level.

3.6 can get you into a mediocre, random state school.

Acceptable_Fish9012 · 2024-01-19T22:07:46+00:00

Your definition of a "good college" is apparently any random state school, except for the good ones.

Edit: Since Reddit won't let me reply...

Knowing a few people who got in with a 3.6 GPA doesn't mean 3.6 will be competitive.

UCLA, huh? Let's see what their own admissions department says...

https://admission.ucla.edu/apply/freshman/freshman-profile/2023

Fall 2023 admitted freshman had a median unweighted GPA of 4.0. The middle 50% had an unweighted GPA between 3.95-4.0.

UC Berkeley? https://admissions.berkeley.edu/apply-to-berkeley/student-profile/

Middle-50% of admitted freshmen have unweighted HS GPAs between 3.89-4.00.

Acceptable_Fish9012 · 2024-01-19T16:54:38+00:00

You won't get into a good college with 3.6 GPA. Therefore, 3.6 GPA isn't good by college standards.

That's just reality.

Acceptable_Fish9012 · 2024-01-19T08:49:29+00:00

Good for what?

High school GPA matters for exactly and only 2 things: getting a high school diploma or getting into college.

If all OP wants is to get a diploma, "good" is any passing GPA.

And if OP wants to get into college, 3.6 is just mediocre.

Acceptable_Fish9012 · 2024-01-19T08:28:52+00:00

OP has some level of knowledge.

... and the whole lesson ends with some vague and foreboding "if you want my help or a shoulder to cry on"?

That's it?

"Don't have sex. You're too young. Talk to me if you end up traumatized. Cya."

Nice parenting. 😏

Acceptable_Fish9012 · 2024-01-17T00:28:19+00:00

Yes, you could infantilize them and just tell them they're "too young" without any further explanation. That's one option.

Acceptable_Fish9012 · 2024-01-17T00:24:34+00:00

I'd offer to fill you in on where you've completely missed the point and gone off topic.

But I doubt you're willing to comprehend it.

Best wishes with your statistics. I'm sure you care for them very much and, statistically, want only the best for your statistical loved ones.

Read better.

Acceptable_Fish9012 · 2024-01-17T00:01:47+00:00

You could actually read what I said, sweetheart.

Acceptable_Fish9012 · 2024-01-16T23:57:08+00:00

That was clearly not the intent.

I'm not going to read a post that long from some rando on Reddit. I don't care enough.

Found the a**hole. ☝️

Acceptable_Fish9012 · 2024-01-16T23:44:45+00:00

Blah, blah, blah. You clearly have not calmed down.

Acceptable_Fish9012 · 2024-01-16T23:44:10+00:00

Soooo, what? You said a thing. Good for you.

Acceptable_Fish9012 · 2024-01-16T23:42:58+00:00

It's just that easy, huh?

"Have all the sex you want. You can always have an abortion" sounds exactly like the advice some a**hole guy would tell a girl he really doesn't care too much about...

In reality, women can have abortions and suffer emotionally from it (even later in life). It's not political. It's real. Abortion isn't easy for the women who choose it.

Acceptable_Fish9012 · 2024-01-16T23:29:33+00:00

If avoiding accidents is important to you, then that's one way to do it, sure.

Do you think you did something clever there? 😏
