I'm a little embarrassed to share my stats because my #'s are weak. I'm an example of someone who worked their butt off to make up for the mistakes I made when I was young and dumb. Before I joined the Army I basically wasted two years of my life in school. (Seriously, one semester's GPA is a 0.8). Bottom line, there's hope for those of us without 4.0's!!
