My unsolicited advice to college students is it's better to have more fun and get a 3.5 than study all the time and get a 4.0...because in the end, no one looks back on their life and cares about getting an A or a B on a test, they'll be more likely to regret not having more fun, I think. |

As ppl have suggested, low GPA can really limit your option...and the tricky thing is, most post-grad schools only look at your GPA, they don't really factor in whether you graduated from a more strict grading university or the more lenient grading university.
I would say 3.2 is enough to let you go anywhere, whether you want to get master or big company's job..I know that different school grades ppl differently, but the sad part is, outside ppl wont' care, so just to get 3.2 in any university you study in and you will be fine...if you can't get it, it's not the end of the world, you are already a college graduated, your future is in your hand. One more thing, don't give up when you have below standard GPA entering the final year, some post-grad school weighs more heavily on your final year GPA!!! So never give up ppl
