all public school that enforce grading on a curve have the 16% A distribution and 20% B MAXIMUM, this is done to maintain the average graduating GPA at around 2.8. if you go to a super grade deflation school, your GPA can be like 0.3 less and its still in the running game. not like a 2.7 GPA compared to a 3.4 GPA from an easier school and you can still claim these stats are equivalent. if the person with a 3.4 GPA does even better on the DAT then its all said and done.
some may argue then why not all go to the less competitive 4 year undergrad to max out the GPA and try hard on the DAT, the simple answer is that the less competitive undergrad may not have the same opportunities for research, EC that you could have received at the more competitive undergrad. Plus, if you perform well at the more competitive undergrad and do well on the DAT, you will fare better than the student with similar stats from the less competitive undergrad because when two students have same weight, the undergrad name and reputation come in to become a factor. However, the name does not matter if there is a significance in stats and academic performance between two students that came from two different undergrads that are even supposedly belonged to different school caliber.
and this redhotchiligochu =_________+ just do yourself a favor and ENROLL in the postbach classes right now. or I will see you 1 year from now enrolling in a postbach anyways. sorry, truth hurts and is harsh.
