Biotechshohag reacted to BigThomason51 in The sub-3.0 GPAs ACCEPTANCE thread
Just dropping here to post! Very low uGPA (less than 2.7), but was able to get accepted into a Masters, and now have around the 3.7ish range. Currently applying to PhD programs in the same field as my masters. I have slightly above average GRE scores (50-60th.) Applied to 6 schools. Hoping for an acceptance!

I am so glad there is a thread like this!
I had a low uGPA as well (2.8), was accepted to a Masters program (GPA 3.8) and then was admitted to a PhD program outside my field.
Just finished my first semester with a 4.0! Haven't been able to say that since high school
Anyways, I would like to encourage anyone who has a low GPA and is considering graduate school to go for it! Your GPA does not define you!! I have a lot of issues with the way GPAs and GRE scores are used to weed out "weak" applicants. These factors matter the least when you look into what makes a successful graduate student/researcher.
If anyone is looking for advice or reassurance, feel free to reach out!
