triggered about graduating with low gpa

I just graduated last week and it seems like I'm going to end up with a 3.90 gpa which is so sad! It makes me want to punch a punching bag or something! My ultimate dream is to attend the prestigious Tuck school of business. Why would they let lowly 3.90 gpa me in when there is a litter of 4.0 gpa badasses out there?

 
Funniest

Is this some dumb attempt at humour that I'm not dumb enough to understand?

No I really just graduated with a 3.90 and am slightly enraged by my piss poor performance

I had a 2.9. I'm redesigning indexes followed by billions of dollars in ETFs and have six letters after my name. I'm published alongside the professors who'd teach you if you made it into HBS. Next.

The only difference between Asset Management and Investment Research is assets. I generally see somebody I know on TV on Bloomberg/CNBC etc. once or twice a week. This sounds cool, until I remind myself that I see somebody I know on ESPN five days a week.
 

if i were you i would have dropped out before graduation-- without locking in that gpa for good.

re-enroll and do your 4 years all over again, making sure to not repeat your past mistakes.
