Admissions GPA Question - Considering Major Rigour

Good afternoon all,

I just graduated from school and sat to calculate my CAS GPA through 7sage, resulting in a slightly better one than initially expected, but still lower than I wanted. However, I finished up school at a Top-5 engineering school with a pretty strict grading system (very, very few all-A students). Anyways, I got an engineering degree and a good GPA coming out of that school, but I am wondering how that will play into consideration with the many Econ, Business, and other majors with less rigorous classes and higher GPAs (I truly mean no disrespect).

Do officers look at the major, rigor, and college? Or is it truly just based on the number?
