Hypo: enroll at T10 college, $100k for every A, lose $250k for every A- or lower
Poast new message in this thread
Date: June 19th, 2019 4:09 PM Author: nudist exhilarant immigrant You have 4 years to get a degree in a hard science major, engineering major, or other major that has been offered at that school for at least 100 years.
For every credit you earn that's an A, you get $100k. For every credit you earn that's an A- or lower, you lose $250k or take on that amount in non-dischargable debt.
You must take all required gen ed and intro courses.
What school do you pick? What major? |

In any case, I don't think either of those majors is old enough. |

Date: June 19th, 2019 5:40 PM Author: indecent market jew 3.8+ at one of HYPS that, while probably somewhat grade inflated in general, takes a certain pride in the fact it's quite rare that anyone graduates with a perfect GPA.
how do I do it this time around? I mean, since college I've done HYS => 2/9/DC clerkship ==> appellate midlevel at V20.
I'm not saying that makes me no Saul Kripke or anything, but I think I can beat 18-21 year old NU acp types in a research/writing contest, particularly with that $$$ on the line. I also built in some leeway for the possibility I might not cop A's in a few of my gen ed classes chemistry, physics, whatever. |

Half of the grades given out at Harvard are an A and the average GPA at Stanford is something like 3.6. |
