yet, another post..2 posts in a day :D

a proof that I'm so f***ed up right now..haish..
have a lot to study but still, here I am, writing a new post.. -_-"
just got an interesting email..

Your Vanderbilt diploma will have the following latin honors if you CGPA is with the given range per the table below.

Remember, when you walk across the stage to get your diploma, your name will be announced with your latin honor.

For example:
John Doe, summa cum laude (friends and family will cheer)

No latin honors :( if < 3.500 (your parents will be embarrased during the graduation ceremony, especially when everyone else is having a latin title announced)
Cum laude if > = 3.500 and < 3.730
Magna cum laude if > = 3.730 and < 3.860
SUMMA CUM LAUDE if > = 3.860 (roughly equivalent to FIRST CLASS HONORS in the British system)

Study hard. Everyone has the ability to get SUMMA CUM LAUDE.

All the best, Doc V.

even the 'cum laude' title looks so hard to reach..
'parents will be embarrased'???
now, who won't feel any pressure, reading that?
I'll just aim, for 'cum laude' first..
gotta go studying :D
