I think I may have shot myself in the foot here.
In my last semester at CMU, I was let into a little secret. To graduate with University Honors, only your first seven semesters counted. Since I had a GPA above 3.5, that means that I had University Honors, no matter what, unless I failed out of school. So I decided to perform my experiment, titled the "No attendence 2.0", which is just what it sounds like. I attended no classes, except for tests and quizzes, just to see if I could do it. Well, that and because I wanted to sit around and play video games. Those of you who know me are probably already familiar with this part.
This was all well and good, because I knew I could just put University Honors on my resume, and employers would be all impressed. Everything worked out fine.
Except now, I'm applying to Stanford for a Masters. Oops. They're going to look at my CMU transcript and think I turned into a drooling retard in my last semester. I almost feel like I should send a letter explaining the dropoff, but then they'd know what a horrible person I was. Damn. Guess I'll have to just take my chances.
