I started working on my secondary application for Columbia today. Much to my dismay, I found that I have to reenter my courses and grades, just like we did on AMCAS. My question is this: What GPA and grades should I use? I have one set of grades from my undergrad transcripts and then the set as computed by AMCAS...not to mention the fact that my school doesn't use semester hours. For example, for a normal course, you get one credit...that's it. No credit given for labs. My gut tells me to use the AMCAS data because, at least in theory, they have already leveled the playing field with the course hours given and calculated GPA. Unfortunately that won't match with my transcripts. Any thoughts? I think I will end up calling them next week.
