I graduated high school in 3 years and college in 3 years, both of which I made top honors. I now work for a Fortune 100 company. Apparently they didn’t care if I made a grammar mistake here or there.
Get a life.

Am I the only one?! I feel like it. I come across sooo many people who were lucky enough for their parents to pay for college. My loans have increased $12,000 in interest since the 8 years I’ve been out of college. It just sucks....
Hey, honey, not all parents can afford to send their kid(s) to college. I graduated 1970, college was cheap by today's standards but Mom and Dad still couldn't swing it.
Seems like you didn't get a very good education, either, since you don't know the difference between "who's" and "whose".
I cannot tell you how many on these boards say they are college graduates and yet make many spelling and grammatical errors. They get upset when it's pointed out rather than admitting the errors.
I didn't get a penny from my parents for college. My Mother used to say that she helped pay for college by being so poor that I got a couple "poor kid" grants.
I DID pay for my kid's college.
I got the poor kids grants too and scholarships that were grade and need base. It helped a lot and to be honest, I was better off than the middle class kids whose parents didn't pay for anything but were too rich to qualify for Pell Grant. My husband is against paying for kids college, especially after seeing neighbors and coworkers support their kids get degree after degree cuz the kids don't know what to do with their life.. But I reminded my husband that even thought our parents didn't pay for our college, their low income allowed us to get Pell grants. So I think it is only fair for middle class and higher parents whose kids don't qualify for "poor kid" grants to pay for that much at least. I believe Pell grant is 5K/year

Oh, I’m not upset. I find it really pathetic that those specific type of people don’t contribute to the thread, but only point out spelling or grammar errors. I guess there’s a new rule stating if you make grammar mistakes, the university that person attended sucks

Ok, then. So it shouldn't be so hard to know the difference between two words that you should've learned by 3rd grade. I know, those standards are just too high for someone like you to be bothered with.

Good grammar is an important part of a good education. Sadly, I note that you just made the dreaded "graduated college" error, right on top of your "who's/whose" error.
It wouldn't be such a bad idea to learn from any grammar corrections offered here, away from the eyes of people who know you in real life and may silently judge you for grammar mistakes.
