Hi there!
I'm going to be submitting applications to TMDSAS, AMCAS and AACOMAS. For the AACOMAS application I have extra hoops to jump through because of my international transcripts, which had to be evaluated by the listed credential evaluation ppl. Unfortunately, they botched up my grades pretty bad because Australian grading system does not convert to US GPA system readily. And to make it worse I had to repeat courses to get better grades in my foreign degree. I was wondering if AACOMAS automatically replaces a lower grade or failed grade with a higher grade for the same class in calculations for GPA. This is so frustrating because TMDSAS and AMCAS do not require me to go through this process for my international degree so my GPA for these 2 applications will be 4.0 for UGrad (working on my 2nd Bachelors here in the US)but much, much lower for AACOMAS. ANy help would be appreciated!
