<p>I really don’t think there’s much of a difference between a 3.9 something and a 4.0. From what I’ve heard from my friends at Haas, GPA is mostly just like a prerequisite for them to consider you, while activities and personal statement are what really get you in. I’m not saying GPA isn’t important–it is–but as long as you have a really high GPA, it’s not like someone with a 3.98 has a very significant advantage over someone with a 3.93. They mostly use it as a way to filter out the non-competitive candidates. That’s just what I’ve heard.</p>
