Once the students get into the university, their real struggle begins with the extreme competition. Here are some useful tips for students starting their first semester at Northwestern University:

  • Never skip class: Skipping class can make you struggle more with the topic and you may not relate to the upcoming one. Do not skip lectures until it is extremely crucial to skip.
  • Explore campus: Knowing your campus is as important as knowing your curriculum, exploring the beautiful campus, and knowing the directions of libraries, and sports/cultural/study groups that may help in the future.
  • Make new friends/mentors: Never hesitate to ask doubts

Northwestern University offers test options for GRE/GMAT scores. However, the university recommends submitting the GRE score to applicants with weak academic credentials or a GPA lower than 3.2. The students must fulfill the basic eligibility by having a bachelor's degree from a recognised university or equivalent and submit the required documents including a statement of purpose, letter of recommendation, academic transcripts, GPA, and English language requirements.

The university does not give high weightage to GPA scores during admission. However, the university expects a minimum cumulative score between 3 and 3.5 on a 4-point scale. The students must fulfill the basic eligibility and submit the required documents such as official transcripts from the school/university attended, standardized test scores (if required), letter of recommendation, English language requirements, and more. Student must perform well in academic as well as non-academic factors to improve their chances of selection as it does not depend only on academic GPA.

No, NEET is not accepted in the USA for medical admissions. NEET is a mandatory entrance exam for medical colleges in India, but U.S. medical schools typically require different admission processes. 

To pursue medicine in the USA, students need to complete a Bachelor's degree (usually in a science-related field) and then take the MCAT (Medical College Admission Test) for entry into medical schools. 

The NEET score is not valid for admissions to US medical colleges, so students must follow the US medical education system's specific requirements.
