<p>while you need 3.5GPA to get your name on the dean’s list at Harvard, you only need 3.2 at Chicago. However, toughness of UChicago really depends on you. If you want to take rigorous courses, then you can do that. If not, you don’t have to. I’ve seen people who go for challenges and overcome it, also people who go for challanges and fails miserably with Roger Clemes’ ERA-like GPA. and of course there’re people who look for easy classes so they can get outta here as soon as possible. </p>
<p>Best wishes with your admission.</p>
