Tips on How to Get Straight A’s in College

[LevelUP]

Everything usually starts with the school and courses that you pick. So here are some tips related to that. 

• Select a college that doesn't have lots of landmines, such as many classes with high DFW rates
  
• Select a major that you're interested in, and that fits your strengths
  
• Select courses that don't overload your schedule
  

A bad school can make your life a living hell. After which, Employers won't know or care that you may have had a crazy professor that failed half the class, and despite all this, you still earned a B. Instead, they'll see the letter grade B, which is ordinary, not extortionary.

I wouldn't suggest going into engineering if the highest math you had in high school was algebra. In order to find a major that fits you, read some books and explore what you're interested in. If you like doing something as a hobby, explore academic subject areas related to your hobby.

We all have weaknesses. Then you have family, social, work, and other commitments to deal with. Loading up your schedule with too many challenging courses all at the same time can lead to trouble.
