The pressure to get into college starts before birth. A 4.0 grade average isn’t good enough anymore.

To get into the very top schools, but to get a good education it's vastly more than enough.

Honestly, to the California State University and University of California system high school GPA doesn't matter at all. All you have to do is two years at a California Community College and do well there and you'll have your pick of which CSU or UC to transfer to.
