Do people's grades typically drop once they're in college?

I'll probably go to Berkeley next year, but I'm worried that I won't be able to keep my grades high enough to get into the CS major. I have an unweighed 4.0 now...but will I start getting B's and C's once I'm in college?

We'll it depends on how well you were taught in High School and how much you'd learn over the past four years.

The more you know the more easy it will be in college.

That's why Asian people are so smart because through out grade to high school they spend a lot of time studying at home and not go out and meet girls, get drunk and get laid and stuff like that.

A lot of professors see Asian people as smart students and are likey to give them good grades.

So with your 4.0 average you should be able to do good with the other Asians in college.

Not all Asians, Ajpennypacker. But I guess you're close enough. ;-)

I think it depends on how good your HS teachers were, how well they prepared you for the college mentality. Also depends on the college and the professors you get and how hard you're willing to work and how much you're willing to do and sacrifice in order to keep up your GPA...

How did I do? Better. Not joking. Maybe it was seeing the billing statement for tuition. *laughs*
