High School GPA?

What were you guys high school GPAs? And would it really affect me in becoming a CRNA?

I partied and played football all throughout high school and almost didn't graduate. Had a good time and a bad GPA. I start CRNA school in August.

I didn't have to submit high school transcripts for CRNA school. Only college. So I'd say no.

Not aware of any school that wants high school transcripts. High school grades do not matter after starting college. I think I had under 2.0 in HS but started college knowing that things now mattered and that college grades never go away.

I may have raised it to 2.75 by graduation. Didn't matter.

There may have been a time or two (over the past 20 years or so) that I was asked for my HS transcripts just simply to show that I have actually graduated from High School, but beyond that, I have never been asked for my HS transcripts. My HS GPA was never an issue. The reason why I say that I have been asked about HS transcripts for actual graduation is that I have applied for positions that actually required graduation from HS. It is possible for one to enter, complete/graduate from College/University, never having actually graduated from High School or obtained a GED. It is because of this some positions don't care about your Associates, Bachelors, or higher degree, they need your HS diploma/transcript to show you actually completed High School!
