If you remember my gpa sadness lol

about going to grad school?

I was looking at the university of texas at austin... and I realized they were asking for a 3.0 NOT in your last two years of school, but your 300/400 level coursework. So I sat down and figured out my gpa for that. As you may or may not know, I was very close to getting my B.B.A. in Entrepreneurial Management... and then had to transfer and am instead getting a Regents Bachelor's of Arts which is basically a completion degree. Anyhow, long story short, with the exception of ONE course (that wicked cool autism course I took last fall) ALL of my 300/400 level course work is business management courses and my gpa for that is a 3.28!!! Soooooooo.... feeling so much better about my chances of getting into an MBA program!! IF I decide to go that route, which I am still debating. But at least I feel like I have a reasonable shot at getting into a good program.

I think my next step (well besides finishing this semester and graduating of course) is to start looking into taking the gmat.
