<p>Anyone know the statistic?</p>

<p>around 3.1. My roommate is a CS major and he told me this stat. not so sure on the validity</p>

<p>I’ve always been told (even by CS staff) that it’s ~3.0. Sounds right to me. CS undergrad courses average between 2.7-2.9. L&S breadth requirements probably bump your GPA if you opt for easy courses, but the unit count is low…So they barely bump up your GPA.</p>

4

<p>I think the official policy is ~2.7 for lower division courses and ~3.0 for upper division courses.</p>

5

<p>^ I think that’s for EECS</p>

6

<p>Uhh, what’s the difference? L&S CS doesn’t have different CS courses.</p>

7

<p>It is for EECS but the requirements for the CS major are classes under the EECS department (like 61ABC, 170,162 etc).</p>

8

<p>EECS also includes the EE students… which have different class GPAs from the CS students…</p>

<p>Chairman Meow’s statistics were regarding CS courses though.</p>
