Don't worry, 3.6 but my major was political science.

I'm 29 and haven't made more than $3/hour above min wage.

Hmm, I just don't understand algebra... I feel out of the loop, I just enrolled into school. I am pretty nervous about it considering I'm going for computer science, and I'll be taking remidials.

Reporting in. I was in gifted programs in elementary school and apparently scored higher on the 1st grade reading speed test than my teacher had ever seen, yet by middle school I was getting Ds and Cs. I don't know what the fuck happened

>tfw read at about 1000 wpm
>never went to uni

>>36560388
>>everyone else who scored that low on tests was a Chad
yea no
maybe Thad passed with low marks, but Chad was in the honors program if not the valedictorian

chad always wins, even when he loses

You can't retain much at 1000wpm that's literally autistic.

were the bad grades because of legit low intelligence or robot depression?

>tfw have "sophisticated" interests and talk about them sometimes so everyone assumes im smart but im actually a dumbass

>>36560388
No one is dumb just lazy
My dad always tells me about having to spend 3 times longer than everyone else studying and trying to retain info. He's a PHD graduate in chemical engineering.

everyone assumes I'm dumb, I think because my voice is super deep

>>36560624
>he thinks figuring out how to skim text is the same as reading at some insane wpm

>>36560758
mix of both. I usually didn't study for tests. Sometimes I did everything a model student would do and still failed.

You weren't gifted. You just learned how to read at a pre-teen level from playing video games, and it gave you a massive advantage and superiority complex for a few years.

There are so many gamer retards that think they were somehow intelligent and led astray when really they just learned how to read at a pre-teen level faster than their schoolmates because of video games, and once everyone was on equal ground in middle/high school their average intelligence + narcissism from being above their schoolmates early on made them perform shittily.

You learned to read at the same time as Chad, but when Chad was out playing ball with his dad, you were sitting there playing some shitty game and picking up more complex words constantly.

Nah, I doubt playing nintendo games caused me to read far faster and more fluidly than everybody in my class. Plus, english wasn't the only thing I was ahead of my peers at. I was put in gifted programs for my scores on those pattern recognition tests, and my 4th grade teacher let me play basketball outside while everyone did timed multiplication sheets because I didn't need them. I'm not trying to brag about my fucking elementary school academic accomplishments but I was definitely gifted

>>36560388
>tfw everyone including Stacy and Chad are smarter than you

>drop out of high school
>drop out of vocational school
>drop out of second vocational school
>about to drop out from third vocational school

Dumb and lazy, the perfect combination.

>>36560388

being an underachiever is way worse, trust me

at least no one expected anything great from you

just get a blue collar job

>1.6 cumulative gpa in highschool
>even that is artificially high because many of my teachers bumped my grades up as much as 20% just cause they liked me

but I'm not actually dumb
