How the conversation would actually go:
"I need a 4.6 GPA"
"What for?"
"To get an appointment to the Naval or Air Force Academy. Where, if I work really hard, I can get a degree and assigned to flight school. Where, if I work even harder, I can be assgned to a test pilot squadron. Which, if everything goes right, will allow me to become an astronaut and fly to Mars before I turn 65."
"Then what?"
"Then I'm on Mars and not in a cardboard box."

No, just a mediocre medium.

Werd. Cuz anything short of walking on Mars and you're a failure. Have fun with that!
