  1. Thanks! I went to a top 5 public university. The average GPA in my major was 2.5 as well, although the average GPA at my school is 3.0.
  2. Hi all, so I'm in a bit of a strange situation. I feel as though I have a very strong application to a top 25-50 MS program in Comp Sci except for one point. Let me know what you think my chances are or what I can do. First the good, Research: 15 abstracts/presentations at medical/statistics conferences 4 journal articles in great to very very good journals on medicine/statistics GRE: >90th percentile verbal, quantitative, analytical writing GRE subject test: 90th percentile Recent non-degree student courses: I took 4 core courses at the program that I'm applying to, and my average GPA in those courses was 3.9. Undergrad degree: At a top 5 public university Job Experience: Four years in research and programming at a university Recommendations: One from my current PI who is a big name and will write me an incredible letter. One from a professor whose graduate CS course I had the 2nd highest grade will be solid. One from a professor whose graduate CS course who will write me a great rec and whom I will do research with if I get in. The bad: My GPA is low, but it is the average in my major, which is 2.5. However, the level of my coursework is all very high -- I have over 30 hours in graduate coursework alone in undergrad. My GPA didn't improve over time, but it also didn't decrease. I took the four courses at the school in which I want to apply for an MS program in (top 25-50 school), and as I said above, I have a 3.9 GPA in those courses. Okay -- let me have it. What do you think?
