This really bums me out. I went into Aerospace cause I wanted the job
of my dreams designing aircraft. Nobodys gona hire a medocree looser
that doesn't excell in math.

So how Important is a good GPA when looking for a job?


If this is an example of your work you might put in some extra hours of
study in English. Just using a spellchecker would help.


Nope, the low math grades pretty well disqualify him from engineering.
There are plenty of places where he could make a good living with the 2.3,
however. The only thing that would help is if he is one of those "worked
through school". If family paid, or there were loans, forget engineering.

This is not a criticism per se but is given to you to show that the whole
package is important. Peter's advice is very sound. That said, are you
planning to design military aircraft?


Peter has no clue at all.
