<p>how many people can maintain 3.0+gpa? 3.5 gpa?or 4.0? what’s the rough proportion of student body?</p>

<p>thanks</p>

<p>I don’t know the answer to your question, but if you join pickaprof (I think it’s $5/semester), you can select Texas A&M, then select various classes you will need to take and see what grades each prof awards. You can google it. I know that the engineering calculus courses are supposed to be killers.</p>

<p>^ Even if you have taken Calculus in high school?</p>

<p>how about…linear algebra,circuits and the likes.</p>

<p>I dont know about engineering. I have a 3.6 in finance after getting 3.75 in high school.</p>

<p>I agree about pickaprof, its a lifesaver.</p>

<p>If you can pull a 3.4+ in electrical engineering, that’s pretty good.</p>

<p>I doubt there are many engineering majors at A&M who did not take calculus in high school. Nevertheless, engineering calculus will be hard. If you look at pickaprof, you can find out what percent of students made an A, what percent made a B, etc.</p>

<p>Ok, I checked pickaprof for you. In Math 151 (Engineering Math I), the grades were as follows:
A 16%
B 25%
C 27%
D 16%
F 15%</p>

<p>These are the grades as reported by the university…not reported by individual students. Keep in mind that the only people taking Math 151 are students accepted into engineering majors at A&M (i.e., “smart kids”).</p>

<p>“I doubt there are many engineering majors at A&M who did not take calculus in high school.”</p>

<p>Yeah, and the ones without a strong math background end up switching over to ID.</p>

<p>wow,A&M is awesome.</p>
