This is why colleges are reluctant to supply more data. I literally grabbed the first example I could find and know nothing else about Tulane other than a friends daughter goes there. Even with the data, some argue over what it means. Many schools at that level don’t give the GPA breakdown, and you can see why.
38% is the actual data. This isn’t good or bad, its just the facts.
Any students application is far more than GPA, and the HS profile is meant to give context to the GPA. 38%. If all I know about the student is GPA(all that was provided in this post), than Tulane is worth looking into.
