Should I give up on RF if my GPA is terrible.
I just graduated and I need some advice. I struggled throughout university due to (medically diagnosed) ADD. I did decent in my RF classes but I didn't do well in everything else and ended up with a poor GPA of 2.75. I'm not sure if I'll be able to compete with others in the RF space who have a masters and/or high GPA. Right now, I've been reading as many RF textbooks as I can and learning how to use HFSS. However even if I can understand RF well it seems like my poor performance in school will always haunt me.
Anyways let me know if I should continue towards my goal of RF or my efforts are not worth it.
