[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Because the 3.5 state school student will likely get a 3.9/4.0 while the 4.5 Ivy student flounders. College grades usually matter much more for life trajectory.[/quote] Most of the Ivies don't even give grades lower than a B. They make it impossible to not succeed once you get in. [/quote] +1. The mean GPA at Yale last year was a 3.7. And for accuracy’s sake, you can’t graduate from Field with a 4.5. The highest theoretical GPA would be a 4.25, since an A+ earns 4.25 and the GPAs aren’t weighted otherwise.[/quote] More often than not, the NCS grad with a 4.0 state school GPA is going to end up with better life outcomes than a Field grad with a 3.7 Yale GPA.[/quote]
