Little to none. The problem is that if your grades are poor they reflect one of a few negative things:
1- You are smart but lazy and dont want to apply yourself to the work required to get good grades. Basically you don't feel any of this is important. (of course these are not ideal ideas since you seem to try an coast through or do the minimums just to get by instead of trying to excel in the classes
or
2- you aren't that bright and in which case your ASVAB might night be high enough to get into BUDS.
or
3- You have a combination of both of the above problems.
So if you are number 1 that means to get busy and try to get past the laziness and put some effort into something. If you dont think SEALs attend classes try something else.

My grades arent that bad. I get a 3.0 on average. I am usually busy with training and computers to do other things like school work but in all the state wide tests and such I have scored above 98% of the other people who have taken them. I just heard from someone that you have to be a 4.0 student and all of that crap. I was just wondering if that was true or not. Thanks for your help.
