I have heard in various occasions that some dental/medical schools re-calculate your GPA based on what school you come from. For example, a 3.5 GPA from an ivy can be recalculated to something higher, just because it's harder to get good grades at those schools. Just curious, is this true? Has anyone heard something like this before?
Also, what difference does it make if you take most of your prerequisite courses at a community college and then transfer to a 4 yr university and finish your bachelors there? Does a CC education puts you at a disadvantage when compared to an applicant that went to a 4 yr school?
