Hello All,

I am still currently an undergrad but I do have a few questions about GPA
I focus so much on my science classes and my other gen-ed classes suffer a little bit from it. Does it look bad if my science GPA is around a 3.7 and my over all GPA is around a 3.5? I know science GPA's are more important but how much impact does you overall GPA have on the process??

That makes me feel a little bit better..

Also then in the Application process, when calculating your GPA will you state the number grade (like 89%) or would you just state the letter grade (like B).. I couple of my classes I got an 89 in but at my University 80-89 is just all equal and a B goes on the transcript.

U just put the letter grade awarded to you by your school. a 3.5/3.7 is very good, less worrying!
