[quote=Anonymous]I can’t answer your question directly (typical DCUM!!), but I will say that I direct admissions into a top doctoral program, and we have tons of applicants with near-perfect grades. We barely consider grades at all, unless someone’s are so low as to prompt discussion. We focus much more on GRE scores and previous research experience (and TOEFL scores in the case of international applicants). So I would consider which schools have research opportunities specifically for undergrads. The liberal arts colleges—both public and private—have traditionally had more opportunities, but the research comprehensive universities are adding more. [/quote]
