How important are science classes?

shahrork · Jan 26, 2011

Im a junior in college and I have a 2.2 Sci GPA however I really love my philosophy classes and do very well in those classes. Im currently taking epistemology, ethics, medical ethics, metaphysics, and gen chemistry. Is it time for me to panic? 😱

I would say it's going to be EXTREMELY difficult to get in with a 2.2 sci gpa. IMO you should start working to bring that up asap. It took me 2 years to get in with a 3.74 science gpa.

A 2.2 sci GPA is going to be a liability on your application, and as a junior, even finishing out with all A's you will be hard pressed to raise it significantly. I would focus on having an upward trend. Good luck!👍

Science GPA is probably the most important part of your application. Hate to crush your spirits, but you have some serious work to do to even raise it to reach the bottom range of GPA's for competitive applicants.
