I think ultimately - OP shouldn’t make a decision as to whether to apply based on their concern. If they want to apply, they should apply.

But if they get rejected (and it’s likely), they’ll want to blame the A- , and they’ll never know why they were rejected and GPA is one of many components. And we’re all saying - that won’t be the reason why.

But many a straight A will be rejected - and since the “average” is 3.9, clearly many don’t have a 4.0.
