A 3.6 isn't enough to get you into a nice grad school? What the hell kind of university do you go to anyway? My friend's sister that graduated from the university I go to and is about to finish law school graduated with a 2.8 and that was good enough to get a partial scholarship. |
well it really depends on the program you are trying to do. i know for a fact with law school they weigh your LSAT score VERY highly in the acceptance process.
now for those that are interested...my friend had about a 3.9ish cumulative and like a 1450 on GRE.
he is going to do a philosophy masters...which means it was even harder to get in because those programs are so small. literally only like 15 spots open for that type of at those top schools...
bleh...i hate him hehehe :p:stongue: |

It's possible. I'm a Religious Studies major, so that department is usually smaller than Philosophy, but sometimes they are combined. All I know is Stanford only accepts 4 per year, and that's for ALL religions, and since I'm going for Buddhist Studies, probably one spot for that discipline.
And the amount of people they accept has nothing to do with how good the school is, just how large the department is. |
