@LetsGoPats Well with some schools at 6% acceptance there is a difference between 3.9 and 4.0. Luckily my gpa is currently 4.1 unweighted.
I don’t think religion counts as a fluff class
There is definitely a difference between a 4 and anything not a 4 as one implies that you were perfect while the other implies that you struggled with some class.
However that difference is not enough to reject or accept an applicant, even at he most competitive schools in the nation.
