@elbeeen. I didn’t say anything about putting in minimal effort, I just want to know what grades will get me in. I plan on EXCEEDING those standards, I just like to have some re-assurance like anyone else would.



Like I said, there’s really no defined threshold to get say what numerical credentials would “get you in.” You know how competitive those schools are so just try to be as competitive as you can be. Even then, you can’t simply forget about the other really important facets of your application, including essays, recs, extracurriculars, awards, course rigor, exc. Quantitive credentials only get you so far in admissions, for any kind of applicant. With the schools you’re applying to, you need to put in a strong effort to distinguish yourself from other applicants with comparable stats. Numbers aren’t going to do that.
