A stupid question

<p>What are the criteria of the graduate admissions?</p>

<p>You have to not ask stupid questions.</p>

<p>srry…:frowning:
but rely what are they</p>

<p>I was kind of interested in this too…I would assume similar to college admissions: standardized tests (LSATs etc.), grades, quality of college, ECs and leadership, and work experience.</p>

<p>I really only know about math graduate school, but it seems to me like recommendations play a much larger role, they don’t care as much about your grades (and not at all really don’t your grades in classes not related to math), don’t care that much about the GRE (you need to not fail, but your score doesn’t really have any correlation with your research potential), they care a lot about past research experience like REUs or a senior thesis (remember, they’re really concerned about your research potential), care somewhat about other math activities that you did.<br>
(I’m just a rising sophomore but I’ve talked a lot to the math grad students at princeton.)</p>

<p>If you’re looking for business schools, it’s my understanding that after college, you’re expected to work in a company or independently for a few years and showcase your skills and potential.
You ask your boss and your college professors for recommendations but it’s mostly your business resume that school’s look at, and the college one isn’t AS important.</p>
