I've always been told that a 3.0 will guarantee you a clerkship at most programs. How true is this? What GPA would you ideally need to have a good shot at some of the better programs? And before anyone says "the higher the better," I'm aware, but not in terms of specifics. For example, is a 3.4 (even with a couple of C's sprinkled in) competitive at most all programs, or is even that on the lower-end of the spectrum?
Long story short, for those of us looking at programs with a 3.0 minimum - what GPA is needed to be in the safe zone? Any personal experiences would be great and all feedback is welcome and appreciated.
