What GPA is considered "competitive" by most students?

3.7>
3.8>

I have a 3.62 and I am wondering if that is good enough for any school..
 
In Texas, that is a competative cumulative GPA, but you have to look at your math/science gpa as well, also look at your PCAT and extracurricular activites to be truely competative. If that is all you have, with no extracurricular and/or a low pcat, it'd be tough.
 
The University of Iowa lists their "competitive" GPA as a 3.5... so you probably have a decent chance of getting in somewhere.
 
you will totally get into a few schools easily with that gpa, unless you are looking at the top schools for pharmacy, then i dont know. but i wouldnt sweat it if i were you. it is not as competitive as med school (thank goodness)
