Hey all! I was verified today (5/28) and was looking through my verified GPA to see where I stand. There are like 30 different GPAs listed - which GPAs will adcoms look at in particular? I have done a year of graduate school since finishing undergrad so these grades seem to be factored in as well.

My guess is probably the science ones since these have the most credit hours? For example, it says: cumulative undergraduate science - 3.5x, graduate science - 3.9x, and overall science - 3.6x.

Apologies no answer for your question but out of curiosity, how long did it take from submission to verification?

No worries! It was super quick, like 4 hours. I submitted around 11 pm and I got the verification email at 3:48 am lol

They will also look at the grades/GPAs for the prerequisites they ask for specifically as well. @Goro may have some more insight to your question.

@orthosurghopeful Question: Does AACOMAS let you add new experiences or awards still? What changes can you or can you not make?

You can continue to update your application throughout the cycle if you wanted to add new experiences, awards, employment, etc.

After adding new entries, do you know if it would populate in the school’s system immediately or take a few days?

Can I start new letter requests after submitting?

Yes

 

[respectedmadman]

Yes

So I submit my classes and PS to get verified, but then start a new request and delivery? It's not limited to the ones you already have?

That's correct! I used Interfolio and I only have 2/5 LOR in so far. Hoping the other 3 will get theirs uploaded within the next couple of weeks.

So can you basically just submit an app with PS and classes, and then add all the experiences/awards stuff in July? Or does the rest of the stuff need to be added before they are transmitted to schools on june 14?
