gpa

resolved

i know my final sGPA is gonna be either a 2.95 or 3.01sGPA, after this semester.. my oGPA is a 3.3, and i was wondering if it makes a big difference? My first 2 semesters sGPA was a 1.9 and 2.6, so I’m on a big upward trend.

Hey guys! I just wanted to get some opinions about my chance of getting into Texas MD programs. I have a 3.55 GPA, 3.4 sGPA, and MCAT of 500, which I know isn't ideal. I have 300+ hours of community service including the local free clinic, 500+ hours of clinical experience (I am a scribe in an...

Hello everyone, This is my first SDN post and I am super excited! My MCAT is in a few days and I just wanted to get some other people's opinions on my stats and the list of schools I am intending to apply to: GPA: 3.95 (One non A class in Calc II) EC: -->90 hours ER volunteering --> 50 hours...

My academic advisor gave me a statistic that 78% of the students from my school with a 3.2+ science gpa and a 500+ MCAT gain acceptance into a DO program. The 3.2-3.4 range is considered low, so I was wondering if shes right.

After looking around this pre-dental subforum for some time I’ve noticed a trend that should be addressed. Around 70% of all of the posts are “Can I get in dental school with a low GPA” and “what are my chances of being accepted to dental school”. There are enough of these posts for anybody who...

Hi! I have a question regarding adding withdrawn classes to my AMCAS application. Spring semester of my junior year was very tough due to some personal matters and I failed 2 of my core classes. Since during that time I was seeing my school therapist regularly, I was able to appeal those two...

Hi, all! I would appreciate some advice as there's a void in pre-health advising at my university at the moment. Scripps College, Claremont CA graduating 2019 Major: Human Biology & Cross-Cultural Health; Minor: Spanish Female, white, 21 y.o. Southern CA resident cGPA: 3.71/ sGPA: 3.29 Goal...

Hi - I am a cognitive science major (a junior in college) and I am considering doing a psychology grad program with a focus on neuroscience. One thing that worries me is that I received a terrible grade in gen chem II lab- a D+ (I understood the material, but I was late with turning in lab...

To all accepted pharmacy students and students who are planning to go into pharmacy, what are your GPA, PCAT score, extracurricular activities, pharmacy experiences, leadership experience, etc? It would be great to know the general stats of all fellow pre-pharm students and accepted students so...

I know this has been posted about before, but I really struggled to find a uniform list of schools that only look at your last 45-60 units. The schools I've listed below, though there aren't many, are based off of tedious research. I'm hoping that this thread will help at least one person out...

Hello everyone! I've never posted on here before, so I apologize in advance if I do something completely dumb. Okay, this is a long one. For starters, I'm currently a freshman (last month of the academic year), and I'm majoring in biochemistry with a Pre-Medical specialization. My first...

I applied to my IS vet school and was denied. They do not take GPA into account aside from having above a 3.0 GPA. I have veterinary and animal experience, but I guess not enough. I have a high GPA, and in the next cycle would like to apply to vet schools that are more likely to accept me. What...

Bear with me, this might get a little lengthy. A little backstory may be useful, so I'll start at the beginning. I'm currently a sophomore at a less than stellar college--Ferris State University. However, I started my college career at Grand Valley State University. I was a freshman, pre-med...

Mistyped--can't/don't know how to delete. See my repost.

Hello, I'm currently a junior in high school taking PSEO classes through a community college. PSEO, for those who don't know, is a program where you take classes on campus (or online) of a college and receive high school AND college credits. Before I was accepted into the program, I had a HS GPA...

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...

Hi everyone! This is my first post to SDN, so hopefully I don't seem too over-ambitious or anything of the sort. I plan on taking the DAT in the Spring of 2019, but I would like to start reviewing this summer. I know people tend to promote a 3-4-6-8-whatever week studying plan, but I would...

Hey there! I'm in a bit of a conundrum here. I'm applying to University of Saint Augustine for Spring 2019. Applications are due on June 15th. I'm currently taking Physics II and Human development courses that end June 27th. I'm not sure if I should wait until after my courses are done so...

Hey guys, This is kinda gunna be a "what are my chances getting in" type post but im genuinely interested in hearing your guys opinions. My GPA is (3.94), which took a lot of hard work and dedication. The reason for this is partially due to the fact that I have been extremely blessed with...

Current GPA sits at a good 3.28, SGPA 3.25. I did an internship at a dental office for a semester and currently hold an officer position in 2 organizations. I also work. Have over the minimum 100 hours for both shadowing & volunteering hours. I honestly don't think I'll get an A in any of my...

Hi everyone, This semester has probably been the most frustrating on yet. I’ve just been getting one bad grade after another and I’m really close to the breakin point honestly :( The amount of time I’m putting in is not the issue - I believe it just may not be the most effective way? What...

Hi, I am currently finishing up my last semester of my sophomore year of undergrad. I attend a community college in Alabama, and I am going to transfer to the University of South Alabama this fall to start my junior year. It looks like my gpa is going to end up being 3.93(best case scenario) or...

Hey everyone, I am looking for some advice on how good my chances are based on my GPA, hypothetical MCAT score, and extracurriculars. Also is there anything else I can add to my resume, or do to increase my competitiveness? (white male, age 25) By the time I apply I will have: ~10 months...

Hello everyone, My first freshman year was embarrassingly awful, I was irresponsible and partied way too hard. During the second semester I decided I was going to enlist because i saw what I was becoming and needed some discipline. I enlisted, served for 5 years, and separated with an...

I am having trouble deciding whether or not I should try and do a 2 year masters for this upcoming school year after not receiving any offers this cycle. I have one in particular in mind at my current university that has been recommended to me. This past year was my first application cycle. I...

Last summer, I took Physics 1 algebra-based at UTD and got an A. Unfortunately, I had to retake Physics 1 because I need the Calc-based credit. I am taking it now at Uni (calc based) and stand no chance of getting an A. Since either one can count for med school, can I choose the higher grade...

Hello! I am planning on applying this June, but am a little worried about my numbers. I have a 3.0 GPA and I didn't do super well (Bs and Cs) in my core science classes in undergrad. I don't have high hopes in terms of top schools, but would I be able to get in to any schools with my GPA + DAT...

Question rephrased: For a grouping of schools with similar MCAT/GPA medians, which is most likely to accept a single applicant? Question specifics - Measuring relative competitiveness of schools with acceptance stats: which is better, all else being equal, when making school selectivity...

Hi there! I’m a current third-year at UCLA and will be taking a gap year after graduation. My goal school is SCCO, but my science/major (psychobiology) GPA isn’t very strong - we’re talking right underneath 3.0. Basically, I’ve gotten Bs and B-s for most of my science courses. My overall GPA is...

Currently a freshman undergraduate student aspiring to become a physician specializing in emergency medicine. Recently, I've become discouraged with myself because I can't seem to pull off grades that would boost my GPA above a 3.0. During my first semester of classes, I had 2 B's, 1 B-, and 1...
