STEM major in one of the top tech institutions but no CAS GPA before December (haven't reached 60 credit hours). Cumulative GPA is 4.2 out of 4.3. Not a US citizen.
This is my second take. First one was in April, 174. PT-ing 175-180, average 178 ish.
My mom is so upset, I can't even believe it. help
Edit: I'm sorry if this post makes anyone unhappy. I know I should be satisfied with a 174 or 176. And I am. Family pressure for absolute perfection is another story, though. My mom is literally asking me to forget about law school. Go to work as a software engineer, she says. I am so sad.
I am so surprised and touched by all of your warming comments. I can't believe how supportive the 7sage community is. Thank you. Thank you so much for your advice and encouragement. @ everyone who replied T_T
