Message: [QUOTE="upstater, post: 4740274, member: 153"] Good post Chuck. As for grad school, the professional schools (Business, Law, etc.) may indeed admit students that way. But in the sciences and humanities, it's much easier doing admissions, since faculty are doing the admitting, and not admissions professionals; so they'll look at the actual work you produced as an undergrad. Projects, research, etc. It's pretty clear to see who is prepared. Almost nothing else matters, not GREs, not subject tests, and not grades (unless they are bad). These decisions are clear cut and not at all mysterious. [/QUOTE]
