okay ladies and gentlemen...how many of you have ever been conflicted about applying to schools with more competative GPA requirements than your GPA?
my dilemma is that my GPA is a mere overall 3.25 (science 3.35'ish) and i WANT to apply to schools with average GPA's of acceptees of 3.6ish, etc (like UCSD and washington university) but i feel i won't get in and i might as well save 100-200 bucks by not applying to schools of that sort.
am i thinking too realistically? should i give hope a shot? i guess one good thing that MIGHT help me would be that i transfered from a junior college with a 3.18, but my first year GPA at the university (which i am about to finish up) is a 3.89 so far
i'm just a little confused..any words of wisdom?
