Duke University is located in North Carolina and has over 14,000 students enrolled there. Duke University requires a minimum GPA of 3.7 for new and transfer students.

65% or D

languages 35+ maths 27+ p.s and chemistry 21+

A 2.87 cumulative GPA would be the equivalent of a C+ letter grade on a 4.0 scale.

The college preparatory curriculum is highly preferred, and a minimum of 20 units is required for admission to all programs on the Academic Campus. Applicants must present a minimum of: 4 units of English 3 units of mathematics (including algebra I and either geometry or algebra II) 3 units of history, social studies and government 2 units of science (at least one laboratory) at least 2 units of a foreign language are strongly recommended Extracurricular activities and employment experience may strengthen an application. Essays are required for scholarship consideration for School of Nursing applicants. Recommendations are generally not required, although a letter and high school profile sent by a guidance counselor may be useful during application review. Transfers 30 hours with a 2.25 GPA from other institutions is recommended applicants must be in good standing with last institution attended applicants with fewer than 30 semester hours (45 quarter hours) also will be reviewed on the basis of their high school performance and, if under the age of 22, must submit SAT I or ACT scores Computer Requirements All VCU students are required to have a personal computer. Every year, the university establishes minimum specifications for computers, which are revised annually for each new entering class. You will be able to use these specifications to aid in your purchasing decisions for personal computers. Some departments and schools recommend a specific configuration from among the options outlined by the university. You will need to check with the school or college in which you are enrolling to ensure that the minimum specifications are sufficient for your course of study.

It seems average for Freshman year. This is like freshman year in High School. You get dished all the easy courses unless you came in with a bunch of credits[ having taken AP courses or being advanced in a subject such as math or science]. It's average. It's not high. If you have that kind of average Junior year then that is high. If you have that average senior year then that is high. Sophmore year it's still about average.. but it depends on the courses that were taken... It seems average for Freshman year. This is like freshman year in High School.

3.4

There is a guide to conversion (US to UK) at the related link and may be helpful.

-How did your SAT scores look? If they werent all too hot, retake them because Uconn seems to place a good amount of emphasis on them.

-Also, what major are you applying for? If you are applying for say, Mechanical Engineering, the BASELINE gpa they require is a 3.4 (It is a very competitive program, trust me I am currently struggling with switching my major to it). I would recommend applying for whatever major you prefer as a primary, then as a secondary (backup) major input CLAS (for sciences and such) or ACES (exploratory; undecided). Both majors are UNDECIDED majors, and it allows you to explore and find your direction easier. Not to mention, they are FAR easier to get into.

-As an extra, do at least one community service project. If your application states that you spent time helping abused animals in a shelter, back it up and base your essay on how much the service touched you, relating to a specific animal, etc. Whoever is considering your application will have a harder time denying an application that moved them to tears :D

It's okay. It's not fantastic, but it's not horrible. It depends on what colleges and programs you are aiming to be accepted into. There are some that will certainly accept someone with that GPA if they have also taken part in other activities and volunteer work. On the other hand, there are some that won't even look at your application.

2.5 GPA

3.8 / 4.0.

Some schools, such as my high school, are much higher.

There is no chance of getting in without college or college-level courses on your transcript.

1. A - very good
2. B - good
3. C - average
4. D - bad
5. F - failing, unacceptable

For institutions that grade on a plus system, it would be a C+. For institutions that grade on a minus system it would be a B-.

If all your grades are weighted the same you add all of your grades together, then divide it by the number of grades you have for example: 97 82 35 67 86 43 (my grades not really) divided by 6 because that is how many grades i have = a 68% 68% is my final grade.

If they have different weights then you need to multiply the grade by the % its worth.

There is no required GPA for admission to the undergraduate program, but like any elite institution of higher education, one should aim for the highest GPA possible if one is looking to get in.

4 isn't enough.... 30 is too low... and it only depends how passionate you are about those EC's not how many you have... people with 2 or 3 usually end of having a higher chance than people with over 7... overall I'd say nope, but I don't know your personality or anything and that's what they look for.

The University of Connecticut (UCONN) requires freshman applicants to have completed at least 15 units in college preparatory work. This work includes four years of English, three years of math, two years of social studies, two years of foreign language, two years of laboratory science, and three years of electives.

3.0 is the standard starting point for a good GPA however it is always best to strive for something better so try to stick with at least a 3.5 if possible.

Many schools will not allow graduation, or will require special help like academic probation, if the GPA goes below a 2.5 or 2.0.

There is no minimum required score as much of the admission decision factors in also the GPA or extra curricular activities. However the average SAT score of students at Ball State is 1400-1710. The range for critical reading is 470-570. The range for math is 470-580. The range for writing is 460-560.

around a 3.0
