gpa

Hello SDN. I am a little ahead of schedule as far as my undergraduate course works goes (dual credit stuff in high school) and was considering maybe teaching (junior high or high school) for a year before medical school. Providing my GPAs, MCAT, and other admission criteria are on par with a...

Hi everyone, I am a junior currently. I transferred from a two year college to a 4 year this semester. I am wondering...when I apply to med school, will my gpa from the two year school count in my gpa calculations that calculate the gpa med schools will see? Or will only my gpa for these last...

Hello! I am working full time right now at Cornell hospital to pay some students loans off. I took my MCAT in June and while I was scoring 510 and up on my practice tests- I got a 498 on the actual exam, which was depressing. However I am planning on retaking it next March. My undergrad GPA...

Hello all, I know that there are some older threads on this, but I was just curious about the DAT ranges by GPA? I have a 21 AA/22 PAT and roughly a 3.9 GPA. Is a 21 too low for my GPA? I have a friend who scored higher on the DAT, but they have a slightly lower GPA. Thanks!

On the online admissions pages for most schools, I didn't see a lot of hard cutoffs per subject, but when I looked at the prerequisites for each school through AADSAS, most schools list "Organic Chemistry - 6.0 credits - 2.0 grade" I'm panicking now because I received a C on my first quarter...

Good evening, everyone! I wanted to know how competitive I am as a medical school applicant, and I wanted to hear different opinions and views. Please feel free to comment and voice your thoughts. I don't really have a lot of people around me to discuss or get evaluated(?) from, so I would love...

Hi all! I took the OAT yesterday and safe to say, I am somewhat disappointed in my results... Biology: 290 Gen Chem: 280 Organic Chem: 340 Reading Comp: 310 Physics: 250 QR: 370 Total Sciences: 280 AA: 310 I took 4 practice exams with Princeton Review's OAT CRACKER and scored much higher in...

Hey prospective and current OTs/OT students! I am brand new to SDN, but long time lurker, and I am so glad I found this forum! Everyone is so supportive and helpful of one another. Anyway, I am currently applying for this cycle (2018-2019) and I just want to post my stats/experiences to see how...

hey! I'm just trying to do some research on schools that favor the OAT or at least weigh it higher than GPA. The reason for this is to decide where I may have a better chance at acceptance. If anyone can help me, that'd be really great:)

Because I'm gonna take some undergraduate-level courses during grad school (at the same school where I'm doing my masters) would they end up in my normal GPA/sGPA or in my graduate GPA?

Hey everyone, Any sort of assistance or help will be much appreciated.

Can anyone provide me with advice on my situation? I'm a Pre-Med bio major and am going to enter my 4th year undergrad this fall. I did fairly well in my first few semesters but due to personal responsibilities and being overwhelmed with taking too many credits, my grades suffered...

This is going to be a little long so thank you to anyone who gets through it: I am going to be a senior this year with a GPA of 3.54 and sGPA of 3.47. Hopefully I can raise both after this year to 3.6 something and 3.5 something. I have done research in an infectious disease research facility...

Hello! I am a canadian and will be applying to Irish medical Schools 4 year programs for the 2019 application cycle. My cGPA is 3.3, but I have a big upward trend, I basically messed up my first year, then second year I got 3.5, third 3.71 and fourth 3.86. I still have one more year left for...

Hi everyone, I finished my freshman year with a 1.956 GPA, which is clearly a very low and poor GPA. I am really ashamed and upset with myself over this, however, I know my mistakes and what not to repeat. I am currently going to retake the two biology, chemistry, and one calculus course I did...

Hey guys what do you think my chances are at schools like NYU, Temple, Nova, UCSF, University of Florida, Meharry, Boston University, Western U, amongst others. Along with 24 AA 23TS and 22PAT with my lowest section being a 22 I have a 3.4 overall GPA and 3.3 science. I have 350 hours of...

Hello, I’m a rising senior (technically) in high school, but I’m a full time dual enrollment student and haven’t even been to the physical high school since I was a sophomore; I have about 40 credits and will have my associates degree this coming spring. There is a slight problem, due to...

Both my father and aunt were accepted to dental school before graduating college. I was just wondering if I have all of my pre-requisite classes done and have taken the DAT is it worth applying early? Also if so, what sort of stats would I need/be most ideal? I just don't see the point in...

So I recently decided optometry was the right field for me. I had been pursuing pharmacy first then medical school. I have a 3.9 gpa and I am going to start studying for the OAT soon. I have been working as a pharmacy technician for the past 3 years. I know I have to shadow optometrist but other...

29 yr old nontrad here. It's been a ride so far but I managed a 4.0 since deciding on the switch into medicine. I'm taking my time before sitting for the MCAT and am enjoying the review process. I'm curious for comment on what minimum MCAT adcoms would need to see to corroborate my turnaround...

Hi everyone, I have one C in my transcript in ochem II and the rest of my grades are mostly As and some Bs. I think I can still end up with a 3.8+ GPA as long as there is no other major slip ups like this. Would having a C in a prerequisite course, but still having an okay overall GPA lower...

So I've submitted primaries to 30 MD and 6 DO schools. I've pretty much received secondaries for all of them minus 2 or 3. I probably should have thought this through earlier but I'm realizing how expensive it is to submit secondaries and I'm looking to cut down my list. Given my 509...

Hey guys! Does anyone know what schools look at when screening candidates for interviews? Is it just GPA’s and OAT scores? My situation is that I don’t have a consistent grade trend. Some semesters I did well and others I didn’t. I also have some D’s and F’s that I’ve retaken a little too...

Okay, so I'm a rising Junior pre-med/Chemistry student at a small liberal arts school in Georgia, and I currently have a 3.25 GPA. I have that because I had over-involved myself with extracurricular activities; therefore, I dropped some of my extracurriculars to get more serious about my...

I am going through the PTCAS application and am at the "review and finalize" portion of transcript entry. I come across this statement, "Note: courses should be marked repeated only if repeated at the same institution. If you took a course at one institution and later repeated it at another...

Hi everyone, I'm new to this forum! I am pre-vet and looking at a few schools. I am not too far into my undergrad to really give an accurate GPA and haven't taken my GRE. But it is currently above 3.6 and I hope to graduate at that or higher, and hopefully will have around there for the science...
