anyone with that high of an UG GPA would never be my friend. It means either (1) they never learned how to party, let loose, whatever, or (2) they constantly sucked the professor's cock.

either way, they are fucking gay.

Seriously, I think a GPA above a 3.7 or so has sharply diminishing returns in value as a proxy for ability. Anything after that is just luck, sucking ass, anal retentiveness. I've had classes where I absolutely destroyed the final (and final is 80% of the class), and still only got an A- because I was always late or didn't do things exactly the way the prof wanted.

So what? Sucking ass and anal retentiveness are exactly the qualities law and a lot of other professions select for.

It's because of LSAC's shitty GPA data. Some schools will give you an "A+" but it just means a 4.0. But LSAC calculates that shit as a 4.333.

This is a bullshit policy hugely unfair to those of us whose schools didn't give A+'s.
