Bad Neighborhood.

Camden is notorious for being a dangerous place to live, but I can’t deny or confirm that because I’ve never been there. Newark isn’t exactly the greatest place to be, but when I went to the academic orientation for Rutgers College, one of the speakers said something like the Newark campus is one of the safest in NJ because of the security. That’s pretty impressive, but there are a lot of violent crimes in that city. I chose the New Brunswick campus because I think it’s the most reputable Rutgers campus according to what I’ve heard from other people.

As for your GPA, I think it’s okay depending on what college you’re trying to get into. I think 3.0 and an 1100 SAT score could get you in, but you’d need better stats to get into say the School of Pharmacy.
