I went to work for a year, after that debacle. (Engineering school wasn't for me, man. Not at all...) Then, I got an Associate's Degree (a 2 year degree) in General Studies. Finally, I went to a state university and got my degree in Computer Science. (Most of the credits from my 2 year transferred over.) Point is, as long as you can prove you've learned from your mistakes and emphasize your strengths, most companies don't care about a few bad apples.

They fixed it this year, but as a result of that, all my marks excluding the ones from this year don't get counted in my GPA. So dog. >.<'Damn, that sucks. I assume your degree audit report (or whatever they call it in Aussie Land) shows all the grade letters or percentages, despite your GPA being fucked?
