Naw, I'm all about being harsh since fact-checking is not all that hard.

And MIT is kind of "weird" in that it doesn't have them. There's no kind of honors or even valadictorian. Either you graduate from MIT or you don't. (Which is kind of great because it's so freaking insane there already that you don't need that kind of extra competition.)

Yeah. We're not quite there but we're close. I think something like above a 3.7 is highest honors and above a 3.3 is high honors and everything else is "OMG you survived congratulations" but the place it's really mentioned is by an asterisk by your name in the graduation program (I can't remember if my diploma says honors...it might).

Because, yeah, graduating is a huge accomplishment. Luckily my college wasn't really competitive.

Still. YAY MOVIE
