Mechanical engineer here. Though for what it's worth I'm in australia.
Just scraped by college/university. Grade point average of 4.3 for my whole degree. Score is out of 7, 4 is a pass.
Got my bit of paper. Noone cares what uni I went to or what my marks were. Wprking as a site engineer in a water treatment plant (I graduated 2010), just cracked the $100k on this new job.
College/university is hard but there is light at the end of a tunnel. You come out knowing nothing. And the best engineers know they know nothing and start learning on the job.
Once you have an engineering degree you get alot of respect from all industries. I got a job at a bank in Canada, they said "if you passed an engineering degree you must be smart, you start tomorrow". Luckily They never asked for my grade point average of 4.3;)
