Hello,

Im taking a math course called symbolic logic (philosophy-240) and it fulfills the math requirement at my University. Will this count in the BCPM gpa since it is technically a math class?

Hmm hard to tell. It’s not under the math department? Then maybe not. If you do well in it, then classify it as such,

Are you looking to get another A in your BCPM GPA?

I too had at least one math class that was cross-listed under philosophy, in particular for courses that are mostly logic that introduces all the math standards in proofs.

But consider that AMCAS will likely automatically put it back to "not math" and you'd have to fight for it. Is it worth it?

AMCAS classifications are usually accepted if either the course department or the course name supports the classification. In your case, neither the department (philosophy) nor the course name (symbolic logic) is very suggestive of mathematics.
