This made me LOL so hard. What are you pursuing a grad degree in?

B.S.-3.17! M.S.-3.5! Ph.D.-3.8!

^ How do you get a GPA for your PhD? Must be a totally different system, as we either get it (with minor corrections or 3 month corrections from the viva) or don't.

Our GPAs are recorded on transcripts and reported to the department and graduate school. We can access our GPAs on line, too. It's only to ensure that no student is struggling to get the minimum 3.0 requirement to continue in the program. That's the ONLY reason your GPA for many PhD programs is remotely important. Almost no employer will EVER ask you what your GPA was for your PhD and people with an understanding of what graduate school is about (for their field) won't report it on their curriculum vitae/resume`.

GPAs in general don't matter unless you have to submit a transcript to a school, organization, or employer that cares about GPAs.

3.72 undergrad

When I had to drop out of grad school (because my daughter arrived on the scene), I was carrying a 3.72 in grad school

I always thought that was weird.. like.. is that the only GPA I was ever going to have? I also wondered if I was just going to get that no matter how much or how little work I put into it? Hmmm... we'll never know I guess!

health care management... I'm still waiting for the memo from the head of the department 'splaining why statistics is a necessary class... still haven't got it yet...

I graduated with a 2.8 as a chemistry undergrad (which was good enough to get me into a great grad school).

As a master's student I graduated with a 3.3 .

[KSUViolet06]

I'm currently at a comfortable 3.75, but I'm an English major. I will readily admit that it's not a difficult major at all. Good enough for me to get into a decent grad school and put me in the running for an assistantship.

[Duchovnysfan]

Undergrad: 3.54
Within Major: 3.55

[Wolfman]

3.3 undergrad, dropped out of first grad school, 3.8 something second grad school.

[crimsondanger10]

Undergrad: 3.49
Grad: 3.8

BTW: We have some smart so-and-so's on GC

[KillarneyRose]

Around 3.8 overall and 4.0 in my major. If I like something, I tend to be really good at it. Or maybe it's if I'm really good at something, I tend to like it. Something like that!

[Soliloquy]

I have a 3.5 (double major with a minor).

Thanks to my recent 4.0 during summer school!!!!!! I AM SO FREAKING HAPPY!

My first 4.0 at the collegiate level, and during one of the most challenging English classes with one of the toughest professors on campus.

I am so estatic that I can't sleep... obviously... hehe

[AUDeltaGam]

I finished my Master's degree with a 3.77 GPA

[moe.ron]

Enough to get a diploma and go on to grad school.
