I graduated with my BS in Health Science with a cumulative GPA of 2.65 and a science GPA of 2.58. I neglected my first two years of undergrad and had a couple F’s and D’s. Since then, I’ve retaken all of those classes and have been getting A’s and B’s. I have a clear upwards trend in my transcript.

Sadly, optomcas will consider all attempts. If it wasn’t for the new no grade replacement policy I would have a 2.9 GPA (which is what my university transcript has).

Currently studying for the OAT and taking it in November and planning on applying afterwards. What are my chances of getting in? My top choice is ICO but I’m open to other schools.

Try your best on the OAT. A good OAT score will go a long way in offsetting your lower GPA. Also the upward trend is always a good thing. Good luck!
