Finally got into Northwestern!

This signals a period of 9 months where school doesnt matter to me anymore :DD
Time to slack off and get straight B's

I think that's the opposite of what you want to do. they'll reject you if you go below a certain grade won't they?

No - they'd only revoke your acceptance if you did absolutely awful (failed all your classes). Grats OP!

Congrats! I think they'll ask questions if you drop more than 1/3 of a grade (A to A-). I find out Thursday and I'm so nervous ><

Congrats man! Northwestern is a really good school, and a lot of fun. A couple close friends of mine went there, and after two random weekend visits and two Dillo Days I never came away disappointed. It's not easy, but I'm sure you'll do great.

Yeah, student loans are the worst thing ever. I agree, man. I'm like $10k in debt and it's horrible.

Congrats! You should apply to UChicago though, because we're awesome and love Starcraft!

No but I have a lot of friends there and it's a beautiful campus. Earn those Bs son!

Awesome!
Imo, 10k debt is worth it (in this economy, name value schools will make your job search easier, even if the system is honestly flawed), 100k debt is not.

Is grade inflation so bad now that slacking off the end of your senior year only results in B's? For shame.

people laughed at me my whole life becuz i never (and frankly my parents instilled this me) trusted credit in any way period. "go to the best college go to the best grad school it'll be worth it." i understood them, but now i'm very happy with my decisions (and happy I got yelled at by my parents when i whined about not going ND or Duke or Cornell. Might have been worth it for yale/harv... but I never had that problem ;p

Congrats!
Glad you got in, now enjoy the rest of your Senior Year
But don't slack off too much
I remember I did and I had an F and a C- at one point lol
I brought them all up so it's all good~

Slacking off is measured on a relative scale

people are always so grandiose with their self judgements. "yeah i didnt even go to class and i got Bs, that class is so ez" "I don't even have to pay attention and I'm getting 90s", always saying "yeah I'm getting around 85%, that's average, that's ok."
I keep wondering if people are actually just bs'ing. what kind of person would do that?
