<p>hi, i got a guaranteed transfer at cornell, which was my top choice. However, I need to go somewhere for freshman year and i am considering rutgers because it is in-state, and good a good scholarship offer. to stay eligible for the guaranteed transfer, i need to earn a B or above in calc, 2 classes of bio, 2 writing classes, micro/macro econ and maintain a 3.0 gpa. how hard are these classes at rutgers? also, does the SAS in New Brunswick offer all of these classes? Thanks for the help.</p>

<p>What was your SAT and GPA in high school? That will give you a measure of how well you can do at Rutgers. A 3.0 should be attainable though if you were accepted to Cornell. Only classes that will force you to put a good amount of work in will be Bio and Expos, from what you listed. Calc II or higher also, if you plan on taking them. But a 3.0 would certainly be possible.</p>

<p>A 3.0 is very possible.</p>

4

<p>what about the B’s or above in those classes. Does rutgers have B-, B and B+ ranges?</p>

5

<p>they have C, C+, B, B+, and A</p>

6

<p>(and F, D, and D+) </p>

<p>just so no one thinks the grading scheme stops at a C.</p>

7

<p>Wait, is 80 a B?</p>

<p>Depends on the class… most college classes are curved.</p>
