Hey guys,

I have one question about GPA. My undergraduate gpa is 3.61 (I did school in India but this GPA is given by World Education Services, they evaluated my credentials and AACOM recommended it). I did undergrad in Chemical Engg.

But my Graduate School GPA is 3.23 (Masters in Biotechnology) from UConn. Actually after Masters I have two years of research experience with two publications and two international conferences. So can I justify my 3.23 with these achievements ?

I took MCAT in August and submitting AACOM application today.

Thanks

I wouldn't worry about it. If you do well on the MCAT that should be fine, and I think Osteo schools will like you since you are non-traditional with strong science background. One thing to know is that AACOMAS application averages undergrad and graduate GPA together in one section.
