So lets define Low Scores:
If you Passed with 70's or low 80's meaning less than 82

In your preparation for the match can you share your list grin

What programs actually had no minimun pass grade requirements and which one did not had the 5years cutoff

thanks

i think the best thing to do is go on each site and research this out.. alot of them have their cut off points (typically 80).. OR I think alot of people just apply everywhere and all over and hope for the best (pricey, yes..).

anyways, good luck. I hope someone else can give you a list they made on their own or a better answer.
