<p>I agree with ag54. There are just way too many factors to predict success based on just one factor such as plus/minus grading scale (which has the potential of rasing his GPA rather than dropping it).</p>
<p>As for Tech vs UT, it’s hard for me to say. My primary major was MIS and i can only speak of the business school. The business curriculums aren’t really that different from Tech and UT, and I doubt UT’s MIS classes are much more difficult than Tech’s. However, I suspect that overall UT’s business classes are more difficult, and UT business students have a few other advantages (which aren’t relevant to this discussion).</p>
<p>I do know someone who graduated from Tech undergrad and Tech Med school who could give me a better idea about medical school admission, but that is not an area I am that familiar with.</p>
