Today, while working in a call center at a university, someone threatened to report me to the President of the University because "I" wouldn't accept their daughter who had a 1.5 GPA and "got accepted into Harvard". I don't even make the decisions, I just answer calls. FML

The parent reported me to my supervisor, my super proceeded to pull the recorded tape of the call and took my side. Faith in humanity restored!

There is no way that kid got accepted into Harvard... Lol too funny.... Let them report you.... Everyone needs a good laugh

This is the culture of mediocrity where everyone deserves Harvard, even the terrible student. Everyone on the team gets a trophy for participation even if they lose, just in case one of them feels sad for losing. EVERYONE loses now and them. The ones who pick themselves up are the winners.

I don't know much about american GPA's, so please don't make fun of me for this question; the general rule is "the higher, the better", isn't it? And the Ivy Leage schools would never accept an average that low? Don't like parents like this, who are teaching their kids everything comes on silver platters.

Yes the higher the better. A perfect GPA being 4.0 for most schools.

Well, with Honors and AP classes, you can get GPAs > 4 or 5.

Can't stand it when people do that! I work in a call center, too. People just feel a sense of entitlement and confidence when they can't see you face-to-face. They feel as though they can say just about anything. Don't worry about that bad mother!

Don't you get ejected from sports activities for having lower than a 2.3 GPA?
