Unrelated to my GPA (atleast in the context of me applying for BDCP; this is not a "I have a low GPA bc I go to a hard school" type thing).
With that said... Do you guys feel that they should compare GPAs straight across the board regardless of school?
This came up over Easter weekend, when a bunch of family was together and asking about my grades. Their take (and I have heard this many times before, from students at other schools) was that private schools give out a lot more A's, in part because people pay so much to be there. Despite the fact that the world is not fair , do you think they should take into consideration whether the school is a public university, or private, or a technical school?
I personally dont really know, I know my 3.2 would be more like a 3.7-3.9 at a CSU instead of a UC. But seeing as the GPA # is not a subjective thing, but that weighting it IS, I dont really know if I think it should be (weighted). What is your take?
