PhD application

Post by nArA »

Hi I have some questions regarding my current PhD application chances. I am a master degree student now with 3.83 cGPA and one published paper in a journal with IF 20.1. However, my bachelor performance was very poor, cGPA was 2.6. Maybe a good thing is that in most chemistry related classes I got B or higher during my bachelors. Now I have very good relationships with my supervisor and other faculty staff, so its very likely they will provide good recommendation letters.
What do you think about my chances? Is bachelor GPA a milestone in the application process?
Just wanna know some advice on how to improve my application or just simple thoughts about it.

I would ask the universities requirement. But degrees mostly not so important to get things done. Later in a job nobody ask for it.

It is my intention to inquire about the prerequisites at academic institutions. On the other hand, degrees are usually not that crucial for getting things done

While your bachelor's GPA may be a factor in the application process, it is not necessarily a definitive indicator of your potential for success in a PhD program. prostadine
