| If you are asking about how difficult it is to maintain a GPA around 3.6-3.8, I would say that it is not too difficult, especially in SAS classes (tends to have an easier curve than typical engineering/wharton classes). I would advise you to take a long hard look at your schedule to make sure that you plan your classes based on the GPA you're shooting for. It might be a little cynical, but taking one class instead of another make make a .1 to .2 point difference in your GPA, and that might be all that matters (you could delay taking a required class, for example)
Honestly I don't think it's too difficult if you set your mind to it. If you're comfortable with the material you can usually expect to do pretty well in your classes. Just make sure that you can test well (since tests are the majority of your grade) and try to stay a bit above average in your class. Getting the 3.7 pretty much means getting straight A's and A-'s, save for an occasional B |
