BA economics(came back and finish after getting kicked out), I then worked in logistics and eventually did my MBA and currently in supply chain for a tech company
I am in charge of admissions at a graduate school and Emmy reviewers look at all applications holistically. The big picture, not just the Gpa or Gre scores. Actually I just pulled the GRE requirement because of the disadvantage it places on students of color.
looking at doctorate programs now.. I always get the itch around graduation time.

I don't remember my GPA in undergrad but it was underwhelming (like 2.4-2.5ish). I didn't know how to study and honestly wasn't very committed to education at the time. I didn't know what I wanted to do as a career until an internship senior year showed me I wanted to get into the pathology field. After graduation I ended up working and taking requisite science classes at community colleges and crushing those, before enrolling in a pre-med post bacc. program that I did pretty well in and got accepted into grad school.
The post bacc. program was crucial for me, its where I learned how to study and what is required from me to do well academically. I ended up getting my masters but that certificate from the post bacc. program is my most proud academic achievement. I went through alot of tough times and learned alot about myself to get that certificate. I'm gonna get it framed lol. I would recommend looking into possible postbacc. programs in a field your interested in to show that you're able to pull better grades.
