Final grades are in and I am really pissed. Am I the only one? Sort of want to kill my econometrics Professor for giving me a B+ with an 89.9 average. Is a 3.44 really that much worse than a 3.45? Not being able to round up is driving me insane. How will I ever make it on Wall Street?
Rant over.

Don't know that feel. Got an A+ in Econometrics. Triple digit percentage scores only, hombre.
lol your school gives out A+s? Where do you go to school, Harvard?
Don't know why you're even borderline B+/A-? Back office here you come....
haha.. I had that happen in a Chemistry course... course was laid out of 1000 points. I had 899. He wouldn't round and I got a B, because he didn't believe in using the +/- scale, despite the fact that my university uses it. So I was annoyed about the rounding... and double annoyed that the school doesn't force professors to use the +/-.
Anyway, the only things you can do is "sort of want to kill" yourself, not others, be pissed at yourself, not others, and come back fighting next semester. Network hard and GPA won't be a factor into the resume screening.
I'm just pissed that 3.45 (same thing as a 3.5) is acceptable by resume screeners, but a 3.44 is going to lead to a 300% increase of resumes in the garbage.
put 3.5 and do really well next semester. by the time they check your grades (if they even do so) you would've had time to raise it.
Be cautious, if you screw up your GPA next semester, you'll be a walking anxiety attack until/if they catch you.
Don't do that. Own your 3.44. Learn to love it. That's your baby and nobody but you can take it away.
Man, that sucks really hard. Are the grades final? I would have asked to do some extra project just to get 0.1 points haha.
At least you didn't get a 3.94/4.00 because an Anthropology TA disagreed with some of your opinions in a discussion class...
Multivariable Calculus, freshman spring: 89.8. Professor would not round up to an A. My school doesn't do +/- GPA.... that 89.8 went on my transcript as a 3.0. Life sucks, and then you move on.
