In 2017 the average unweighted high school gpa was 3.38. So an average student gets a 3.38.** Yet half of college freshmen have to take remedial level courses. A 3.0 is now a below average student. The problem is in our feel good, hurt no feelings environment kids are raised in now teachers give out A’s and B’s like candy at Halloween.

Therefore, if a kid can’t get a 3.0 in high school can his college coach expect him to survive eligibility in college given the rigorous time demands?
