entry level position might be understandable, but if you are good at what you do, have references from distinguished people, and have good experience, grades are not important.

Opportunity cost is essential what the forgone cost of doing something it; it's the alternative choice of what you could have used your time for. To incorporate it into your "Business letter," justifying why you deserve the 2% say that writing this letter I have missed the opportunity to do xxx, thus proving this class and my grade is one of my highest priorities, which is why I deserve the 2%. Something a long those lines, I honestly would of just said something how I came to class everyday, participated to the best of my ability in class, and did my best to the learn the course material, which is why I deserve 2%.

LOL WE FER SURE HAVE A SUPERIORITY COMPLEX...FOR A REASON: WE ARE SIMPLY BETTER THAN YOU.

A GOOD ENGINEER IS MORE VALUABLE AS A BUISNESMAN THAN A GOOD BUISNESMAN, ITS BECAUSE OF THE WAY WE THINK THROUGH PROBLEMS.
