Ok, I am going to answer this question but you could do a search and look for the answer. Ok, since I just did my AACOMAS gpa this afternoon I will tell you.
I am not going to post all of the classes here, you will need to go to their website and look at what they consider science and non science. But the major differences between AACOMAS and AMCAS is this:
--AACOMAS does not consider math as part of the science gpa unlike AMCAS 's BCMP gpa calculation
--AACOMAS will substitute a repeated course grade without penalty towards your gpa. It will still show on your transcript but it will not be factored into your gpa calculations
--Overall, AACOMAS considers classes like Oceanography, Kinesiology and Nutrition all as part of science gpa
If I were you I would go to the website.

bkpa2med said:From what I understand, the science GPA just involves bio, chem, and physics. Everything else is the same for the most part.
No, the science gpa involved a lot more than bio chem and physics for DO schools. Urghhh, now I have to post this: Look below :
