Hey guys I need some serious advice.
I didn't get into business this semester because my gpa for the 9 courses was 3.1 whereas the requirement was 3.15. I plan on retaking on of the courses that i got a B- (lowest mark) in. Say I retake this course and get a B (or higher) then my gpa for the 9 courses would be 3.15 (or above). An advisor told me it's not worth it and just keep applying but I really don't want to waste my time. I feel like i need to decide now before it's too late!! But then on the other hand people are saying that next semester the minimum required gpa will drop but I honestly can't expect that. But what if it increases and i my gpa is still not good enough!! FUUUU i hate sfu. why did they have to change admission standards!!? my gpa for all my courses right now is above 3.00. I am getting raped in the ass seriouslyyy.
My back up plan is econ. But i honestly don't know what I would do with an econ degree. It's so much harder too.  I feel so depressed/confused right now.

If you still can't get in but your GPA is fairly close to the cutoff point, then just keep applying but take upper division econ courses during the process. If you get in, then those econ courses can just count as upper div electives. If not, then you can move to econ without being behind.

lol, no but that guy was super annoying, dont make this lecture longer than it already is asking some dumb ass questions, its fucking review. But i think he's one of those guys that ask a thousand questions and gets an A.
I was sitting alone, behind him sorta on the left hand side, near the bottom. But there was this hot ass white chick sitting near at least. |
