A 3.9 gives you virtually no competitive advantage over the 3.5 kid if you’re a socially awkward weirdo who can’t hold a conversation for longer than 2 minutes. Get good grades, but not at the expense of losing out on all other aspects of the college experience for a marginally higher chance of getting tossed in the “Yes” pile. Get good grades, get involved, and most importantly, get laid. I promise it’s not rocket science

 

Ultimately do what will make you most fulfilled. Don’t want to look back on your college experience and regret not taking advantage of everything available to you academically and socially. Good luck bro
