Whats the worst you have done for a quarter/semester and at what level? I'm a senior at OSU and I'm at the point now where I just dont care. I have maintained a 3.2 throughout my time at OSU but I'll be lucky to finish with a 2.5 this quarter. I finished all my major courses in the fall and right now I'm just trying to finish up some GEC's. So......whats the worst that you have done? A good friend of mine was able to pull off a .8 a couple summers ago.

Spring semester sophomore year. I was out of classes for 3 weeks due to illness and got engaged in the same semester. I ended up with a 2.8.

Other than that semester the lowest ever was about 3.3, my final GPA was 3.75

I always wanted to see if I could pull a Reggie Germany but it was too much effort. Not sure but I think my lowest was a 3.2 or so.

2.2 -- First quarter of freshman year at OU. I had to bust my ass just to get up to that. Halfway through the quarter, I was at about whatever 2 Fs, a C and a B- would get me. Maybe worse than that. By my math, that would be about a 1.1 and I thought I was doing worse than that. Maybe it was two Cs and two Fs.

I don't remember ever going below a 3.0. My worst semester was when I was pledging ... got my only C then in what is essentially math for idiots (really the course was called math in action but it was designed for people who needed an easy math course to fill that requirement). After that I was usually somewhere around 3.5.

3.6 my first semester at Miami.

I was a History/Classics major...no "weed out" classes for me to take, so while the transition was sorta rough that 1st semester, still did just fine.

2.633 this past fall. B+, C+, C+. Econ, math, and accounting. Way too many numbers for 1 quarter.

Followed it up with a 3.91 in the winter though, so it averaged out. I'm still at a 3.55 cumulative, which I'm happy with.

I graduated from High School with a 1.9
The Graduation Committee would let me give a “Low End Graduation Speech” that I suggested ……so the day before graduation commencements I glued their locks and Bond Do their lockers

Namod65, Went to OSU and that was my first Quarter GPA with those same courses plus I was taking Physics. Made my decision to quit studying in the dorm room after that.

2.14 Winter Quarter of Junior year... D in Mechanics II, D- in Vector Analysis, B- in some dumbass European History class for the liberal arts requirements.

Had an A and an A- too that quarter, but they were in a 2 and 3 hour course, respectively... so they carried little weight.

Nice, D's in your core engineering requirements :). Where do you work at now so I know not to buy stuff from them in the future :).

My degree is in meteorology. Those were the classes that no one is really sure why we had to take, and the new faculty member in our department is removing them from the curriculum and replacing then with courses that will actually help us.
I got A's and B's in the actual important ones (Thermodynamics, Dynamic Meteorology, Differential Equations, etc.)

I'm in grad school, so I'm not terrorizing anyone yet, haha.
