Are SAT and ACT scores more relevant than GPA and overall grades when it comes to college admissions?

Since a lot of high schools weight their GPAs differently, and since SATs and ACTs are standardized, I was wondering which aspect makes more of a difference when applying to colleges. #testing #SAT #GPA #college #college-admissions

Is GPA important?

I am an undergraduate student majoring in Urban Studies. I am now taking a course, which is Urban Economics Studies Since I didn't study economics in High School, I don't really understand in it. Also, I find myself more interested in Spatial planning, but not in urban economics. So should I focus on my interest? I am worry that if I perform bad in the exam of Urban Economics, my GPA would be affected. #GPA #interest #urban-studies #urban-design #urban-planning #college-choice #career-development #studying-tips

Is it really important to have a good GPA once I am looking for a job right after school?

As a 17-year-old senior who is planning on going to college soon, I have always wondered if my grades are more important or the research and internships that I do are more important. All through high school, my focus has been to get that A in all the classes and that's what I have been always trying to do (in order to get into a good school with good scholarship). However, once I get my bachelors or masters, is it really going to matter how I did during my college years academic wise or does the experience count as more important? (I want to be able to focus more on internships and research rather than homework and attendance) #internship #college #GPA #JobOpportunity

Can my G.P.A. get me financial aid for school?

I've always been a good student. All A's most of the time. I have a 4.0/4.0 G.P.A and I want to go to college. I am in concert choir, showchoir, and marching band and am working on finding a part time job as I will have to pay for most of my schooling myself. With that being said I really need financial aid and am wondering if my G.P.A can equal money towards college? #GPA #FinancialAid

What are the defining factors colleges look for when applying to college?

When looking at colleges, they show the GPA and SAT scores that are required and that’s all. Some will say they look for how involved you are in school and your community. I just want a clear statement of what most colleges want to see from me. #applying #requirements-management #college #college-admissions #gpa #sat

How do you find a college that is best fit for you?

I am going into my senior year of high school and need to start preparing for college applications. There are several universities that I have been drawn to, but after doing a ton of research, I could not seem to find a university that offers the whole package. I plan to go into the field of occupational therapy in the future, so when I discovered the 5-year BS/MS OT program, I set my mind on getting into one. Throughout high school, I also focused on maintaining a pretty high GPA to increase my chances in getting accepted into one of the top 30 universities in the United States. Additionally, I am looking into colleges on the East coast so I won't be too far from my family. Of course, recreational facilities, hands-on opportunities, and tuition cost are other big things I look for in a college. To my disclosure, there aren't many options that carry the whole load. When choosing one university, I would have to toss out some of the perks I wanted. How can I find a college that is right for me? #college #university #east-coast #occupational-therapy #gpa #college-selection #college-prep
