>>11987894no I've just applied to a lot of internships. when I say it depends I mean it depends a lot on the sector you're trying to go into. internships at the local mayor's office won't ask the same things as theory internships at a national lab.
>do most of them filter out applications based on GPAsome do, some don't. generally ones with high numbers of applicants will. but having connections/prior contact with people involved in the process can help you get around this, and good rec letters can speak to stuff beyond your GPA
>are they likely to ask youno, nobody in the real world gives a shit about GPA except for other students.
however, if your GPA is really low and you get an interview for an internship, they might ask you to explain why it's so low. this is a great opportunity to share if you had a hardship, medical condition, etc. that impacted your grades in any way.
