I managed a 3.89 average. Would it have been 4.0 if I hadn't had any weed? Probably not- but maybe.

Depending on your courseload and stress-coping mechanisms. As someone else said, even pre-med students with 4.0s still get fucked up. It's a stressful courseload, and some cathartic release through weekend drug use (on nights when you've got all your studying/homework done) can probably be a helpful release.
I certainly wouldn't recommend everyone smoke weed everyday while in college. On the other hand, I was dealing with some chronic pain that made homework practically unmanageable when sober. Weed isn't a painkiller, but for me it's like a mental magnifying glass; if I got stoned and got into my homework, the pain took a backseat. So that was a good thing.
Drugs affect everyone differently. Know your drug, know your body, and keep your priorities straight is my best advice.

Well said, Sativus. Weed is great to wind down after a good study session or at the end of the week. I don't drink much, so I probably only drank four or five times my whole first year, but smoked weekly. I got a 3.25 which isn't great for me (my HS gpa was 3.89), but my second semester was a 3.5... it just takes a while to adjust to teaching yourself a lot of the material.

Yeah Canada rules because your campus has a pub and a liquor store
I think every campus in America has about 20 bars or pubs and 40 liquor stores
College FTW

just make sure you go back, or find a job making great money...
most people who take a year or more off end up not going at all.
