For myself, before I decided to do pre-med, I didn't care much about my GPA and took some classes that I didn't really "study to ace" (i.e. did the the work but didn't study hard/ re-read /do many practice problems necessary to ace.)
QUESTION:
Suppose there's two applicants both with ~3.6.
The first one has about a 3.6 every year.
The second has a 3.3 the first two years, a gap year(s) and then 3.9 the second two years.
Suppose most/all of the pre-med classes were taken in the last two years.
Could you tell me in words/numbers how much adcoms distinguish between these two people? Thanks. @gyngyn
