<p>it had very little to do w/ the material actually the bad grades were in a math class anda a science class one of hwich was completely out of my range and by the time i realized it was too late to drop w/o getting a W. that + all hte non-academic parts about adjusting to school far from home + some bad luck (got terribly ill, girlfriend broke up w/ me) made for the perfect storm. it doesnt excuse the grades obviously but since you asked…</p>
<p>edit: phuriku so is like marshall/phi beta kappa attainable with a 3.7(ish)? i can’t find any info about what sorts of #'s people have to have in order to get them. altho i do know some post-grad stuff has minimum gpa</p>
