How is a valedictorian elected rather than chosen simply based on highest GPA?

What school do you go to? I need to know to determine whether or not I am impressed.

Are you proud of getting a mediocre GPA in a major that requires little intelligence and has no practical value in the real world?

I know several engineers with 3.9X GPAs. Maintaining a 3.9+ in a tough major such as engineering is quite an impressive feat. Bragging about your grades in english is analgous to boasting about winning a race in the special olympics.

you picked the wrong place to post a reprehensible brag thread.

I was planning to be a bit of an [censored] in this thread, but looks like I've long since been beaten to it. And how. You're still like one of the top five worst posters ever, ben.

Way too harsh. Most of these engineers would be not be near the top of their class if they had majored in English or literature of any type. And I'm assuming native speakers.

Honestly, I thought it was too harsh on those who participate in the special olympics.

Wynton,

Consider the average mathematical ability on twoplustwo. Now consider the quality of the average post.

This would get a much better response if posted in BBV. Still, I'm happy for you. Congrats man.
