| The definition of "median" is middle. Yes, there are lower ones, but if one wants to be competitive, their GPA should be at or above the median.
Remember, the median of a set of numbers like "3.6, 3.7, 3.7, 3.7, 3.7, 3.7, 3.8, 3.8, 3.9, 3.9, 4.0" is still 3.7. It doesn't necessarily mean there were a lot of 3.3s and 3.4s and 3.5s and 3.6s. |
