Not to offend anybody but ISyE is not BME (for the record I have ISyE MS from GaTech and took some ISyE classes while I did BS there, I know what I am talking about). Statistics is average. I know these links. I also know that my DD is not stupid, OOS student (and they are kept to high standards at admissions) and came from highly selective technical magnets (in middle and high school.) You cannot have expectations to get 3.6 GPA based on the link for some time period with the AVERAGE. Also you need to understand that BME students are all very smart. There are no stupid ones in that major. So you are talking about 3.6 among very very smart, very very hard working students. This is not your average 3.6. I would say it is close to normal 3.9. You cannot expect to be smartest among very smart. And there is no grade inflation there. You have to see what these kids study. It is not in any books. Many things are based on real-life situations. There is no help anywhere with these problems (and TA took the class with another professor and has no idea what this one is looking for). You can higher qualified tutors that will be clueless how to help…
