    Is a 3.02 GPA in Physics Enough for Top Physics Grad Schools?

    Thank you for all the continued guidance, everyone. I appreciate it. I'm actually not "aiming" for top 15 schools in general. I wanted to know if I stood a chance to get into UMD, specifically, because due to financial and other restraints, that is the only one that I can potentially go to if...
