<p>my cumulative gpa is a 2.7 while my chemical engineering gpa is a 3.250.does that affect my chances of a job or internship?</p>
<p>don't put down ur overall gpa, put down ur engineering gpa only. u got all C's in non-major courses?</p>
<p>actually i did bad in biology and organic chem so far(D and D+).all the rest are B+ and Bs....a few B_ and A ana A-.Thats where the 2.7 comes in.For the 3.250....i did two engineering courses.Mass and energy balances(B)and chemE 291 sophomore seminar(A)</p>

<p>It's been said many times, 3.0 is the magic number for internships and perhaps jobs. But since you have only take 2 engineering courses (one I am assuming is just a 1 or 2 hour (seminar) ), you have plenty of credits to raise your gpa. Mass and energy balances is quite a weeder for chemE's, getting a B in the course suggests you will be fine for the rest of the curriculum.</p>
<p>Engineering is tough and companies understand that. As GatorEng said, make suer you have above a 3.0 and you'll be fine.</p>
