[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Wow, I have a son who is in his first year hoping to get into Computer Engineering and needs a 3.75 GPA to be competitive (he is in general engineering for now), after his first semester he has a 3.45, which is great but might put him in the running for electrical or mechanical which are his fall backs for now. We have a daughter in her third year at a different university majoring in systems engineering with a minor in mechanical. They both work hard and I will give them extra props this week before they head back to school. [/quote] It is difficult to get and maintain a High gpa in engineering/cs. This is a good reason for people to consider schools where you can select any engineering you want and it's not a competition to maintain a 3.8+ to get into the major you desire. They do exist at many good engineering schools. My kid was accepted at 4 of that type, all in the 30-70 range. [/quote]
