<p>MrInformed is new to this forum and has not been following the accepted students threads from earlier in the year. He also posted that his friend got into CalTech with a 2.9 GPA, even though CalTech has a 12% acceptance rate (the same as Harvard, MIT, Yale, etc). I am not saying it’s not true, but I sure there must have been extraordinary circumstances. The OP should just look at the admissions stats and the accepted students threads and then decide for herself how hard she should work to get into Northeastern.</p>
