[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I like old school but I don't want DC to be disadvantaged when it comes other grad school. I mean a 4.0 from Harvard or UNC will beat out a 3.5 from Georgetown, right? Maybe if Harvard goes through with its grading reforms things will be different?[/quote] A 4.0 from UNC would be top 5-10%. A 3.5 at Georgetown is well below average and if moved to UNC would likely be average there at best. Grad and professional schools compare you to the undergrads at your school as well as consider the reputation of the school. Overall Georgetown is known to have a higher caliber of student than UNC. And, lower than ivies. That peer difference is factored into the decision.[/quote]
