do adcoms look at GPAs differently based on major?
for example, applying to a top school say an applicant doing a biology major is in the 3.9 range and an engineering major is at 3.75. all other things being equal, is the engineering major at a disadvantage?
most people would consider the engineering major to be "harder," so are adcoms forgiving of lower gpa's in majors like that?
