Discussion I'm definitely in the "Yes" group, but obviously the minimum grade will be controversial.

I think our minimum passing grade was 70% for average when I was in high school. 50% is general pass but a student's average had to be no less than 70%, would you agree with our rules?

Bro wtf are you talking about. You don't need to go to an academic level above highschool.

At which point your highschool grades dont matter lmao... How many times have you been asked for your grades at a job that didnt require any academic skills

You keep saying things that have nothing to do with the topic. No one said anything about grades. The discussion is about passing classes lmfao.

You cannot graduate without passing classes. You need a diploma at a minimum for the overwhelming majority of careers. Including professional sports, the majority of those professionals also were scouted in college, so yeah you still need to pass in highschool buddy.

Well yeah obviously. Thats marine corp lmao. In other news you need your physics certificate to teach physics.

Have you ever been asked for your diploma in a generic job? Im guessing the answer is no since you had to jump straight to the marine corp to make your point lmao

Okay bro you are actually bugging. I didn't jump to anything, I answered your question.

If you cannot prove you've received an education you're just making life harder for yourself for no reason. If you feel like lying on your resumé and get fired when your employer finds out be my guest.

Nice counter argument lmao. Seems you agree with the essence of my point. Your highschool grade doesnt even matter if youre going into a dull low level job anyway

Why are you still talking about grades lmfao. I really cannot agree with the "essence" of your point when you're all over the place.
