[QUOTE="fd25, post: 22057750, member: 1050941"] I’ve been thinking more about my GPA trend recently and I’m just wondering if it is going to hinder my application. Any feedback greatly appreciated. cGPA: 3.81 -> 3.60 -> 3.41 -> 3.64 (3.63 total) sGPA: 3.75 -> 3.10 -> 3.43 -> 3.62 (3.56 total) My challenge during my sophomore year was that second semester I struggled quite a bit with Orgo II and ended up withdrawing, and my focus on that class affected my other grades (two B-, two A-, three As that year). I explain the W very well in my essays in terms of what I learned from it and later ended up with an A- when I repeated the class. Other than that, no other god awful grades. I made one C+ in an upper level neuro class while studying for my MCAT/senior thesis, but all As otherwise that semester. A few Bs sprinkled throughout my transcript, and 511 MCAT. BS in neuroscience with honors (with senior thesis and consistent research experience, no pubs). Just in terms on my metrics, what are your thoughts? I’ve already applied broadly this cycle, just looking to put my mind at ease if possible. [/QUOTE]
