May I ask what changed? I mean, that is a pretty significant jump my friend- great job.


I mean, I was really just looking, more or less, for a synopsis (as I am done with that exam for all of eternity).Sure thing. I posted it on the 30+ thread right after seeing my score....but it might not make sense since I was freaked out (in a good way) after seeing my second score!
Heres the link: http://forums.studentdoctor.net/thr...-the-cbt-version.503250/page-30#post-15626905
But if you (or anyone) has any other questions, I'd be happy to answer them 🙂
I see that you have already been accepted! MAJOR congratulations on your success this cycle!!!![]()
Schools see what AACOMAS calculates, and use that for their minimums...mostly. There are a few schools with some secondary things they'll look at, but with your GPAs, you're looking great, and those shouldnt affect you. Of course, MCAT and rest of app will weigh heavily as well. Schools do get a list of all courses you've taken, with all grades, even if they weren't the last attempt.Hi guys, I've tried searching but couldn't find the answer anywhere. I know that DO schools only count your last grade if you retook a class but when they state the minimum GPA on their website, is it your regular GPA or is it the adjusted GPA (the one aacomas calculates)? I'm a non-traditional student. Had great grades freshman and sophomore year but then had a baby, took a few years off , came back and basically flunked my first semester back. I retook a bunch of courses and have a strong upward trend since then but my non-adjusted stats now are cGPA 3.2 sGPA sGPA haven't calculated but probably about the same, Mcat pending. My adjusted stats are sGPA 3.38 cGPA3.47.....What are my chances of getting in? P.S. around 40+ hours of shadowing, 100 hours of volunteer and no research experience.
Should I consider graduate school first with those stats or will I be okay with DO schools?
just out of curiosity- was the 30 or 26 expired?Figured I'd throw in some encouragement.
Sister's friend just got into Touro NV with 3.2 sciGPA and 3.3 Cumulative with three MCAT attempts (30, 26, and then 25 on the third time). She had DO letter. This process is pretty random. lol
Has 3 more interviews but will find out the names of places and post info on here for those who are interested.
Nope. She took it the first time in 2012 I believe.just out of curiosity- was the 30 or 26 expired?
