I agree!

Forty-one years in aerospace has shown the need for really good mathematics
comprehension, including some math fields you may have to learn on your own
since you probably will never heard of them in undergrad school.

Good luck

Hey guys it's me again.

How big of a factor is GPA in getting a good aerospace job at a cool
company? The line "...Do good in school" is always given in advice
when I was growing up. To tell the truth I was holding a decent
3.3gpa untill I hit my math sequence at college. Now I have no more
'breeze' classes (history etc) to prop up my gpa and it's killing me.
I'm problobly around a 2.3 now.

This really bums me out. I went into Aerospace cause I wanted the job
of my dreams designing aircraft. Nobodys gona hire a medocree looser
that doesn't excell in math.

So how Important is a good GPA when looking for a job?

If you had dragged down your gpa with general ed you might have some
wiggle
room, but all those cs and ds in math and engineering courses probably
mean
you should look outside engineering for a job.
