about a decade ago, I studied the relationship between tuition/fees --- and the average GPA of a graduate.
I found (surprise!) - that schools with higher tuition - tended to graduate more students with high GPAs.

Not really a surprise to me.
Bell curves are decieving things - to rely on them for anything, is well, ridiculous.
What Joe and SS said are correct - in fact, if it's been over a decade since you went to college, "experts" are telling you to take your graduation date of your resume as well - because apparently your education does have an expiration date in some people's minds.

Thought about starting a new thread, but decieded to drop in here instead.
The mediean wage of a drill rig worker is over $125,000k.
When I got hired on in 1976 over a black jack table in Elko Nv. I did not ever have to know how to spell my own name.
