Then I really took an interest in engineering. So halfway through my sophmore year I dropped the hardest class and kept what I thought would be easy my Bio class and finished that with a D(was not easy). So long story short I did good in other classes and finished up the school year with a 2.97gpa short of 3 from the D. From changing schools and majors I had 3 W's from 2 diff schools. Then I transfered to a better engineering school and got blindsided with very hard poor rated teachers since I signed up for classes so late in the spring prior. I ended up once again with no bright light at the end of tunnel dropped my Calc 2 class.. and Will choose a better teacher in the spring. I'm a previously enlsited AF member and worked on F-16s as a crewchief with Airman leadership classes as a rope and good&amp;nbsp;academic&amp;nbsp;background in techschool. I'm doing a student leadership class now at school and studying mechanical engineering at the same time. I also will be going AFROTC.&amp;nbsp; With having changed diff school from traveling.. I have, as of now a 4.0gpa, 3.3gpa, and 2.97gpa.. from 3 diff schools. If I continue to keep my grades up do ROTC and stand out.. and can still avg a 3.3 + GPA will i be frowned upon on my educational background? or is it just the gpa they mostly look at? I still want to try for fighter pilot.. but at this point I feel like I made too many mistakes in my education to cont.. the dream.</description></item></channel></rss>
