Major & Minor GPA -- help~~

chensong211

I majored in finance in undergraduate school. GPA is 3.4, not high but still ok I guess. I also took economic law as a minor (it's called "double majors" by our university), but I did really bad in that, only 2.5 GPA.


The question is shall I count in the minor's GPA and calculated the weighted average when I'm applying for MBA? That will bring my overall GPA down to 3.2 only...


I thought about not mentioning my minor at all. However, the problem is that although two degree certificate 学位证 are separate, my graduation certificate 毕业证 clearly states that I studied both finance and law   My concern is if the school checks them all, they might find the inconsistency.


I've been back and forth on this issue... Any suggestion/experience welcomed. Thanks!!

Thanks for sharing! Didn't see your reply until just now.

I'm a dual bachelor as well. I wrote a letter to ask the admisson officers. As for GPA, they only look at the first degree. So don't have to worry about the minor.

But, it would be safe for you to ask your target school directly do they count GPA for the second degree.
