That Was Then, This Is Now

There's a thing going around, where you compare your life in a past year to your life now. lathany gave me 2008. ( This is long, so behind a cut it goes. )

All interesting stuff - thanks for the write-up. I know very little about the American education system, but I'm reading T1s stuff as very smart?

Yes.:-) Her GPA (grade point average) is the average of all the classes she took in high school (which is four years). A=4, B=3, C=2, D=1, F=0. So a 4.0 GPA would be straight As. T1 had a couple of Bs, so her GPA wasn't quite perfect. It was a heck of a lot better than mine, though! The merit scholarship she got is based on her GPA, and her ACT score (which I think was 32? Again, better than mine), and she has to keep her grades up in college to keep the scholarship.
