gpa

I’m applying in June and the only downfall of my application i would say is my GPA. Are there any schools known to look at the application as a whole or any schools that focus more on a higher DAT than GPA?

Hey guys, I recently got invited to an interview to be part of a very well respected doctor's research. I am, however, very nervous about the interview itself. I've never had to go through an interview before (college didn't require interviews, nor have any of my extracurriculars). My strengths...

I was accepted into Concordia's pre pharm to pharm program, but decided to go to Madison instead for undergrad. Is it a good idea to try and transfer back and avoid taking the PCAT or try Madison or MCW. Another factor in my decision is what each school prepares one for, I would like to be...

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.

Hi everyone, I am a non-traditional vet school applicant. Does VMCAS use the most recent 45 credits in ANY program (e.g., a Masters program), or is it the final 45 of undergrad? I just finished an MPH and the GPA situation is much prettier than undergrad... *laughs nervously*

Hi everyone, So my freshman overall GPA is 3.37 and my sGPA is 3.1... I just finished my first semester of sophomore year and it should be somewhere around 3.5/3.5. My GPA goal is 3.7/3.7 and to get that I pretty much need As everywhere. What techniques do you use to manage that? I'm in...

Hi, I had no C's on my transcript in the last 2 years, but this year I managed to get 2. In March my father passed away, and soon after I received a diagnosis of MS. All of this leading to issues with anxiety and depression. The depression has been crippling and I've had two stays in the...

I took the MCAT Sept 2, and got a score of 509. 126/127/127/129. 80th percentile overall. I know I scored right at the national average of people who were accepted into medical school. I am not super disappointed with my score, but I was not happy. I know I can do better. I took the two AAMC...

Hey guys. So I’m a P1 student and just finished my first semester. Some of my final grades have already been uploaded and I know for one class I have a C. I never get C’s ever so it feels like the end of the world to me. I knew even before starting school I wanted to do residency. But now I’m...

I am a senior taking DE Multivariable Calculus. I made a bunch of stupid mistakes on a test and now there is a chance that I might end the class with a B. However, I there is alot of time to pull myself back to an A. If I get a B how much will it hurt my odds of getting into dental school or if...

Hello]

Hello! I am CURRENTLY in a 1-year SMP, and would really like to get the ball rolling in terms of beginning medical school, or at least have a semi-guarantee that I'll be in medical school ASAP. That's where Temple comes in. I realize that Temple's program requires a 3.6 throughout the next...

My advisor recently mentioned to me that dental schools pay attention mainly to the last 60 units of science coursework when evaluating students, especially GPA enhancing post-bac applicants. Has anyone else heard this?

I keep calling admissions offices, but they're pretty much telling me the same thing. I know the entire breadth of the application is important but does anyone know schools that weigh the OAT higher than the gpa?

Hi all, I was wondering what my chances at dental schools in NYC are and any comments will be appreciated. Please be straightforward. So I messed up early in UG due to numerous problems. I finally decided to pursue dentistry in my final year and that's when I changed my major from chemistry...

Hey guys, I am wondering what the best post bac GPA boosting programs are. I attend a top 15 university and have a 3.43 GPA through 3 years (neuroscience major) so I am thinking a post bac is necessary I am from the New England area but I am open to all options! Thanks!

(current junior) Unfortunately most of my math science courses were during my first 1.5 years of college when I had a parathyroid tumor which affected my ability to study, exhausted all the time, felt bad, etc. Once i had the tumor removed, I felt great and I'm doing better in my courses. So I...

With help and encouragement from some posters I was able to take the prereq classes at a community college to start my journey to med school. I have a bachelor's in fine art w/ 3.4 gpa which is low, but that was before I decided I wanted to go to med school. I have a 4.0 science gpa so far, I...

So i need help, I am graduating this july of 2018. I am thinking of taking 2 gap years (applying the summer of next year). I had originally planned on taking the MCAT this summer after graduating but some have told me thats not enough time. So I was planning of taking it december of 2018 (next...

Hi! I am a first semester junior at a really good university. My freshman year first semester I was stupid and took calc 3 when I couldnt handle it and got an F. Since then I have not received below a B in any premed class and one B- in a class for my major. I am doing well on the MCAT practice...

SO....I'm not a strong math person and I was just calculating my AMCAS GPA and, come to find out, I have a 3.84 BCP (No M) but only a 3.747 BCPM. I know ADCOMS look over transcripts in more depth than just GPA, so will they take into account that its really math that's holding me back?

Tried finding more information on this by searching past posts but nothing similar. Currently doing a Post-bacc at state Uni. Taking 4 classes and one lab. One of the classes I’m risking getting a B (at a 88 right now) but I need a 100 on the next test so most likely will end up getting a...
