You need to graduate high school. Your GPA is not a factor as long as you get your degree and pass the ASVAB test.

Yes. The military doesn’t much care about your GPA as long as you graduated and pass the ASVAB.

You need a high school diploma or a GED..Your grade point average does not matter.
The better you score on your ASVAB the more choices of jobs you will have..If you score low then you will have less jobs to choose from.

Usually a high school degree or GED. However, there are exceptions that can be done by a court action. Any Marine recruiter knows all the current tricks.
