Can my MCAT overcome gpa?

I've been thinking about pod more lately and am wondering if I'd face an uphill battle. I realize pod doesn't do grade replacement so I'm about .5 lower in gpa....

As it stands: 3.1 sgpa/3.05 cgpa/30 mcat. Does pod calc post bacc gpa like do/md? If so I've got a 3.9 there.

Thanks for your input...

There is a thread specifically for these types of questions:

To be brief, your MCAT and a LOR from a podiatrist should get you in the door of all schools. Post bacc courses are incorporated into your GPA.

Have you looked at pod stats at all!?

You're a smart person, you understand averages..when an average GPA is between a 3.2-3.4 then you should realize that that means the accepted GPAs fall below and above this number. You are 0.1 points below the average but have an MCAT 8 points above the average...

You're at the top of the hill, you're not facing any battles, you can start writing your deposit check to the school of your choice and plan on getting scholarships.....
