V50 :
A few things. I'm Canadian, so PGRE isn't required to apply to Canadian schools (though it can help).
The article you sent me is one I've seen, though it is particular to the US, and may not reflect Canadian
admission standards.
Secondly, if you concede that a professor might not waste...
Lets say that the minimum average is the average required to be considered for admission, for them to so much as glance at
your application, and that some other number, the competitive average, is a threshold at which point they will very seriously
consider your application for acceptance...
Greetings Choppy,
It is certainly competitive, though how competitive is always a question. Websites list minimum averages that (In my opinion)
are usually very out of step with the "real" stats : Listing a B average minimum is great, but very misleading I think, from everything
I've read here...
As I mentioned before, the 3.0 is cumulative, which includes an entire degree in arts classes unrelated. The bulk of iffy marks are from unrelated coursework. I spent a lot of time doing other things and exploring life, but I don't think that necessarily implies that I don't know
what I want to...
Greetings All,
So I've received my first round of rejections from schools, and I must admit I am a bit surprised.
This is my second degree, with my first being in EE from 12 years ago. At that time I had pretty
severe (and documentable) mental health issues, and this really held me back...
