Colleges' view of GPA

<p>How much of a difference does a 3.7UW VS. a 3.85UW make to selective colleges? (HYPS)</p>

<p>The 3.7 won't be accepted by selective colleges while the 3.85 has a much better shot. It does make a difference. Now if you were asking me about a 4.0 vs. a 3.95, I would feel that those two GPAs would be considered about even, and the ECs would make the difference. Frankly, I am not even sure if a 3.85 is high enough.</p>

<p>do you know if colleges look more at weighted or unweighted gpas?</p>

<p>So would you say that a 3.7 vs a 3.85 is a big difference?</p>

<p>it really depends on class rank in my opinion. in my school the difference between 4.0 GPA and 3.95 GPA is like making into the top 10% or not.</p>
