About 17% of the class gets a 3.5+ GPA, but it really depends on your major. About 27% of Arts majors get a 3.5+ GPA. That said, GPA is not the most important factor in MBA admissions. I mean, even the top MBA programs like Harvard and Stanford have average GPAs around 3.6, which are quite low compared to the 3.8-3.9 of their other programs. Your work experience will be much more important.
