Yes, I do not see why it would not be. You have to report any university level course on AMCAS. That includes courses taken at a community college during high school, classes taken abroad, classes taken at the university you attend, and any other college level courses.

Yes it will, definitely. But you do enter in when the grades were from so schools will know they were taken in high school. AMCAS calculates your Freshmen, Sophomore, Junior, Senior GPA for college, but your high school college classes won't be included. So if they are bad or something, while they will be in your over all, schools will still be able to see your progression at the University.

Good luck!

AMCAS will provide a grid showing your BCPM gpa, all other (AO) and total gpa for HS, and each year of college, plus any after post-college coursework, as well as an undergrad total and a grand total. that's a lot of numbers!

I was wondering LizzyM, if community college courses GPA are factored into overall GPA if we took them while in high school. Also, do you know how AP credit are handled? Are they assigened a letter grade depending on what we scored on those tests?
 
AP scores don't get graded. schools either count or ignore those credits based on [the school's] preference.

and LizzyM already mentioned that the grand total gpa is listed. so yeah, your overall cum gpa includes CC courses.

They count grades for college courses, including community college courses, taken during high school. AP credits are not courses and thus do not count.

The first part of my post was that "They definitely will." I was just trying to say that they wouldn't be included in the yearly break down. Sorry for the mis type...
 
sorry to dig up an old post, but what if your university didn't accept the grades from the community college course taken in high school, then, since they were a prerequisite, made you retake the course on campus. Will both count, or only the most recent?
