GPA vs transcript/HS profile

<p>What do you guys think is more important to admissions? I saw several "chance me" threads get responses such as "no chance... your GPA is too low" and stuff like that, and I was wondering if the cum. GPA alone can decide between a reject or accept.</p>

<p>I think that the admissions officers look at GPA’s first, and have a cut-off limit, unless there’s something particularly outstanding/unique on the transcript such as SAT/ACT scores, and EC’s.</p>
