How do adcoms compare GPAs from UC and CSU when is comes to competition and admission? give me an example.
ie. CSU 3.8 vs UC 3.6 ??!!
CSU 3.6 vs UCs--??

3.8 is a 3.8 Done deal.

The DAT is available to compare.
You want to prove your gpa means a lot, get a high DAT score.

No one hast time to compare all the different schools and get a new "modified" gpa.

Please don't assume CSU GPAs are inflated. I worked hard during my CSU undergrad career, earned a 3.3 cumGPA, and scored 25/25/24 (AA/TS/PA) on my DAT. Some people might have inflated GPAs, but it's ludicrous to apply a blanket mentality like that.

I think a 3.8 CSU GPA would clearly equal a 3.79 UC GPA. 🙂

Yeah, as long as there's no huge discrepancy on the DAT, it wouldn't really matter.

I have got the exact same idea as you do, but was wondering the adcoms point of view
