I have a low science gpa (the above is calculated with the AACOMAS methodology) and a low cumulative gpa but a pretty good MCAT score. Definite upward trend in my grades over four years and I performed especially well this past year with all A's or B+'s. If all the clinical experience/volunteering/shadowing etc. is equal, should I still try to retake a course or two I performed poorly in? I found that if I retake just one of my chem classes my sGPA will be raised from a 3.15 to a 3.27 (if I get an A, and I am positive I can). If I take an additional lab bio course I could be in the 3.3 range. Is this kind of gpa rise worth the time in class next semester and the money? Any input much appreciated.
