I would appreciate any advice!
I am reapplying this year, at the advice of my advisors at Hopkins. Since the submission of my application last summer, I have taken four additional science courses in a post-bacc program (Biochem, Cell Bio, Microbio, Drug Design), and received A's in all four. I also took Physics I and II post-bacc (though these grades were on last year's application), and received A's in those (so my post-bacc GPA is 4.0, with a total of 22 credits).
My advisors seem to think this sufficiently demonstrates that I can handle tough coursework, but these four recent classes have only changed my BCPM GPA by about a tenth of a point! My question is, will adcoms recognize the improvement and overall post-bacc GPA, or will they still just see a lower-than-average GPA and stop there?
Thanks for your help!
