As part of my statistics final, I have to do a project. If you have the time, could you answer these questions? Whole numbers are all that's needed for the first 2, and two decimal places for the gpa.

1. How many credits did you take in your most recently completed undergraduate semester?
2. How many hours did you spend playing video games in that semester?
3. What was your gpa in that semester?

If you're uncomfortable posting any of these publicly, but are willing to PM me, that would be awesome.

edit: And thank you in advance for anyone who posts.

1- 4 (13 hours)
2- 10 hours a week maybe.
3- Can't remember my exact GPA, but I had 2 A's, 1 C, and a W (dropped without receiving a grade). Should be easy to compute the GPA with that.

My W was in Statistics. I simply can't pass the mother fucker, and I'm going to have to drop it with a W again this semester. I picked Communications (HR) as my major because it had absolutely no math in it. Now when I'm 6 classes from graduating they fucking implement a rule where Comm majors have to get a C or higher in Stats. I hate math that I will never use in the real world.

2. 15-25 including consoles (what else do college kids do besides eat, sleep, fuck and play games?)
3. ~3.6 (overall GPA was a 3.8)

1. How many credits did you take in your most recently completed undergraduate semester?
about 45 (MIT has an insane way of doing credits -- this was four classes)
2. How many hours did you spend playing video games in that semester?
0. video games did not exist when I was an undergraduate :)
3. What was your gpa in that semester?
4.5, more or less (MIT has grades on a 0.0 to 5.0 scale, not 0.0 to 4.0 like most places)

I don't expect my answers are relevant to your survey, but I'm bored.

1. 14

2. 40+ hours per week (counting MUDs and tinkering with BBS doorgames on the BBS I ran, since this was in '93)

3. 0.97

Of course, that semester was "completed" only in the technical sense.

3. 3.4/4.0

Legend in the making...
Oh and quite modest

1. How many credits did you take in your most recently completed undergraduate semester?
2. How many hours did you spend playing video games in that semester?
3. What was your gpa in that semester?

1. 3 credits (math class) currently taking 6 credits
2. Because the class was hard for me, I spent 15-20 hours a week at most; this semester averaging more like 20 hours so I am guessing I played 15.
3. 3.0 in math/3.25 overall.
