Rule 5: Academic performance
The
basic job of a college student is to go to class and study to get better
grades. Freshman and sophomores take
classes that have standardized midterm and final exams. Recruit an older member
who is proficient in that subject to hold study sessions before tests for the
younger members. The older member understands the material and from experience
knows what is probably going to be asked on the tests. These study sessions can
significantly help younger members learn the material. Every member should take one
"fluff" class per semester to get an easy A. This was huge for people
like me. I was an electrical engineering major, and most of my classes were way
over my head. But I made sure to take one freshman-level class each semester to
get an easy A. This
class did nothing to meet my graduation requirements, but it was huge for my
GPA. Roughly one-sixth of my total college GPA can be credited to these
classes. For the rest of my life, people will think I was a good student
because of my GPA. Little do they know how my GPA was inflated ...
