I was wondering if you think I should retake my DAT and try to score higher? I took my test the first week of July and started submitting my apps immediately. Almost all my schools were sent out by the first week of August. I have one interview so far, so naturally I am getting antsy and...

Hey guys, I just a few quick questions!
1. I'm currently sitting at a 3.43 cGPA right now, and another year of good grades would take me to about 3.54. Would 0.1 grade point make a big difference given that I'm at the lower end of the GPA spectrum?
2. I am eligible to graduate after this...
I would like some real life advice on how the hell I make up for my C in intro to Chemistry.
I got a 78.7% in a course with no curve, no extra credit, no dropped tests. The instructor was new to the school, and was often befuddled by our book, and admitted openly that he didn’t teach the...
Hi everyone,
I'm currently enrolled in a post-bacc program and I'm trying to figure out the minimum numbers I'll need to get into an allopathic school. (Not that I'm against DO). I finished my first year of post-bacc with a 3.72 cGPA/BCPM GPA. I'm in the process of finishing up Chem II and...
Hi,
Pre-med here preparing to apply to medical school during the next cycle. I'm looking for some advice regarding completing a post-bacc program, taking a few courses throughout the next year from local colleges, or doing neither of those. My undergraduate GPA is low due to extenuating family...

My freshmen year started off like anyone who ever has never had freedom as a teenager- wild. Due to that I made a C in biology (when i couldve did a lot better because at the end i made A's but it was too late) and wasnt planning on retaking it because I knew for a fact that I will no longer get...

Hello everyone,
I am going into my senior year with a 2.69. My last two semesters are on the lighter side and I should finish with around a 2.75. I have yet to take the GRE. My undergraduate is a BS in Environmental Chemistry, with a minor in Chemistry, and pursuing a Certificate in Public...
I know there's so many questions like this out there already, but I've been seriously stressing and I'm hopng this tread will either ease my anxieties or point me in a realistic right direction so that I'm not just worrying aimlessly.
Currently have a pretty crappy GPA at a 3.24 and I screwed...
So I'll be able to graduate a semester early once I complete the Fall 2018 semester. Assuming I get all A's I'll graduate with ~3.56 cGPA of 129 credits. If I take an extra semester full-time of 12 credits, I can graduate with a 3.6 cGPA of 141credits. The grades that lowered my GPA are a D (3...

Howdy! (as we say here at Texas A&M)
I am currently a second-year college student and will be graduating a year early (in May of 2019) with a degree in health humanities, and minors in English and public health from A&M. I will be finishing up my pre-reqs for DO school post-bacc in the year...
Is it feasible to do this if I want a head start in premed and want to get into a top tier med school? Is it a waste of time to attempt this? Are there better resources? Should I spend time trying to get (more) AP credits?
I feel like I performed sub optimally in high school and missed my shot...
So at the end of freshman year Im really wondering if I have what it takes to be a doctor. I finished my first semester with a 3.23 gpa but i didnt take college that seriously so I came back spring semester and tried really hard. The thing is after trying hard I am going to end up with around a...

So I have a 3.83 cGPA and a 3.87 sGPA. I'm currently in an analytical chem course to finish my chem minor however the professor is an extremely hard grader.
The first few lab reports were not weighted heavily and were graded very lightly however, the last 5 are worth ~35% of the course grade...
So, I'm really confused on how the AMCAS GPA handles medical drops. I've read on their website that they take both grades for repeated courses and that they include courses that have not been calculated into your college's gpa (like courses that did not count for credit). However, I cannot...
Hello!
I am a biology and chemistry double major, and currently a sophomore. I've been working on a 4 year plan with my advisor and we recently came across a problem. I have four options, according to him:
1. Put off Physics II until spring of senior year, and take molecular next spring instead...
How do medical school admission teams regard GPA trends?
My GPA trend:
Started at a 2.4, now it is at 3.68. I suffered from severe depression, but got help, which is why my GPA increased so much.
The past year I have taken over 23 credits each quarter (some 26 credits), averaging over a 3.9...
Hello friends :)
I am currently at a 3.68 GPA. Would it be worth staying in college one more quarter to boost my GPA up a bit, or should I just work on my MCAT to supplement my lower GPA?
At my college, my transcript will show that I have graduated cum laude, and if I stayed one more quarter, I...

I am near the end of my sophomore year and so far all of my classes have been A's except for my orgo lectures (labs are A's). I am still taking orgo 2 so I might be able to pull it up to a B or B+. I know my cgpa and sgpa would still be acceptable but I'm wondering if a B- would ruin my chances.
I will have a 3.19 oGPA, 3.28 sGPA, and a 3.38 BCP GPA on my transcript when I apply for dental school this summer. My gpa is lackluster thanks to a lot of Cs that I accumulated in high school where I took a large amount of dual credit classes before I had really matured. I also had a rough...
I am currently waiting to hear from public 4-year institutions in my state. According to my state, as long as your GPA is a 2.0 or above and a min. amount of credits have been met- you can successfully transfer. Upon calculating what classes transfer, I am about halfway through a BS in Psych at...
Hi everyone,
I am a double major in Philosophy and Biology (I know they are very different.) My first two years of college I had to work full time because I had to pay for college while I was a full time student too. I did my best to keep my grades up and did well on biology, got A- on both...

I've been mostly focused on a student organization I'm starting and I work full time. So my GPA is pretty low (3.06). But now I have much more time to focus on classes. What is the highest GPA I can get? I graduate with 120 credits. Thank you in advance.
Ended up getting 4 As and 1 B (in a lab)! My best ever (and busiest) semester since starting college and that too with 13 credits and hospice volunteering.
So now I turn to you guys for advice.
