I sent in my apps today and haven't paid the aacpmas site yet, because i cant figure out my gpa from one of my colleges. i know my pre req gpa but not the overall. can i just put N/A and they will figure it themselves? i know i have to pay for it asap and will it be done after i figure out this question.

Thank you

What's the problem with your GPA? I'm assuming this is dealing with how to count transfer credits? If not, just calculate your overall GPA using their scaling...just do it in Excel and it will take 5-10 minutes.

If you can't figure out the excel method this is an easy gpa calculator. (make sure it matches up with the grading scale for AACPMA)

speaking of GPA, does anyone know how retakes are calculated when applying to pod schools? does the retake replace the old grade completely like for the osteopathic application or do the two grades average like the allopathic application?

thanks

I believe you average them. the AACPM website has a reference on how to calculate gpa's

They're averaged.
