3.2/170. 3.7 over the last two years though. Anyone know how much that will help? And if you don't think it will, please keep it to your self you idiot.

Re: Splitters Unite! - Official 2010 Splitter Thread
It depends. Did your grades go up because you started working harder, or because you transfered to a TTT and switched over to a communications major? The better your story, the more the upward trend can help.

I actually started taking an antidepressant, and my grades immediately improved. I included this in an addendum with all my applications. Just hoping schools wont view it as an insufficient explanation...I am especially interested in Northwestern (used my ED there).

Guyincognito-I have a hard time imagining an adcom member that would view that as 'insufficient'. It's still not as good as if you had maintained your higher GPA all 4 years, but as far as reasons/excuses go, it's certainly on the more sympathetic end. Good luck!

Thanks. I find it a little unlikely as well, but it always helps to hear it from somebody else. I guess only time will tell....Good luck to you too!

I'm like the antithesis of a splitter. 3.85/170 is about the most "meh" score you can find. Each stat is not really bad, but its not good either. Haha.

Re: Splitters Unite! - Official 2010 Splitter Thread
A 3.85 is more or less killer, and a 170 is only below par at the top 6 or so. Only by browsing TLS relentlessly might one get the impression that neither of these stats is "good."Ragged wrote:I'm like the antithesis of a splitter. 3.85/170 is about the most "meh" score you can find.

I thought this was a safe haven where I wouldn't see numbers like ragged's, but now I'm scarred.

Wow. Two sub 2.5s with scores in the mid-170s on the same page. I thought my numbers were an unusual combo, but you guys are like the rare albino koalas of the applicant pool.
