We were told they just added 400 new questions to the knowledge test. Also heard they modified a few cog tests but no specifics.

I dont think there is a minimum (maybe 2.0?). I assure you I was on the low end of the GPA scale. Lots of other variables. Internal recs and emails to the hiring team likely helped me get an interview. I figured it is what it is and just prepared to answer that question in the interview. I'm the poster child for "enjoyed college and has the GPA to prove it". Dont sweat it. Good luck,.

Is it true though the lower the GPA the less points in the college category?

Judging by your screen name you had some other things going for you! As you said, lots of variables. I think a mid 2 GPA hurt me - engineering degree from a service academy, military time but not logging flight hours, plenty of good stuff on the resume but I'm pretty certain the low GPA bumped me down the DL list... I don't think it was insurmountable but the app's no longer in so it's a moot point.

FWIW a DL recruiter told me 2.5 or better is what they are looking for from "top tier" schools, which includes military academies.

I had a 3.9 and finished in less than 4 years. They never called despite updating every month for 8 years. Whatever.

If you can figure out what the hell they're looking for then good job. I couldn't figure it out.

Valid, f15c in the screen name probably does fill the "alternative lifestyle" square
