<p>Hi everyone i would like to know what margins should you set when searching for colleges. an example is … when it comes to gpa should you only look at schools that have the same average gpa as the one you personally have or also look at schools that may be a couple points above your gpa. example: 3.3 look at schools with average 3.5</p>

<p>There’s a sub-forum designed exclusively for College Search; you can access it on the left menu <<<</p>

<p>Try reading some of the fixed topics there; they might give you a good insight on how to prepare a college list.</p>

<p>ok… for north carolina state they use a 5.0 scale for incoming freshman but my school uses a 4.0 scale do you know what would be the required gpa for nc state on a 4.0 scale. The average gpa is a 4.24 out of the 5.0 scale.</p>

<p>For grades are proportional…</p>

<p>4.24 -> 5.0
X -> 4.0</p>

<p>5X = 16.96
X = 3,392</p>
