On the other hand, the media studies major is assumed to be the easiest major on campus. Many athletes pick it so they can spend less time on classes and the most time on practicing and partying. Therefore, i assumed that the media studies major would have a higher GPA.

<p>Media studies is one of the few capped enrollment majors in Berkeley’s College of Letters and Science. Students in that major have higher GPAs because a minimum 3.2 GPA in prerequisite courses is needed to declare the major: [Media</a> Studies : UC Berkeley](<a href=“http://ugis.ls.berkeley.edu/mediastudies/major.php?page=decl_overview&q=sub]Media”>http://ugis.ls.berkeley.edu/mediastudies/major.php?page=decl_overview&q=sub) . Students with lower GPAs generally will not be allowed to declare the major.</p>

<p>It does not appear that medical school is a common destination for media studies majors: <a href=“https://career.berkeley.edu/Major/MassComm.stm[/url]”>https://career.berkeley.edu/Major/MassComm.stm&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
