I agree
Most companies dont care about GPA... more about the degree and any experience you have.
Experience is the more important of certifications.
I had NO Degree when I got my first computer related job, When I got my current (2nd computer) job, which was as a Unix Admin, I still had NO degreee...but I was attending college at the time.
I had 2 1/2 years of some Unix experience back then. I was very much a newbie back then, but that bit of experience I had helped quite a bit.
And a good jobs market back in 2000 didnt hurt either.
