<p>@corranged, some school is just going to have the “average lowest GPA” from any given list. It just happen to be Chicago! I believe that your conclusion is contaminated by a touch of rationalization.</p>
<p>@idad, the head of admissions at an ivy league med school recently told S that one does not “subjectively” add anything to a U of C GPA for comparison purposes. He stated that it would be great to have something like that worked into the formula, but that unfortunately it is impossible to do.</p>
