Does time heal even a GPA?

Total undergraduate GPA: 3.42 (2.7s for first 3 semesters, 3.7-4.0 for the remaining semesters)

Current BCPM GPA that will be entered into app: 3.46
However, this BCPM includes C's from my freshman year of college in 2000 in Astro, Calc, and Statistics.

I worked for a few years in consulting and I came back to do my pre-reqs in 2008. For just Bio, Physics, Chem, and Orgo I expect to finish with a 3.69, which I believe shows my "true" science aptitude. All A's except for freakin' Orgo lol.

How forgiving will the adcoms be about that actual BCPM and how much can the newer (and more relevant subjects') grades work in my favor (if at all)? What else can I do in my app to highlight all this?

Or am I being anal, and a 3.4 is just fine? Help!

I think 3.4 is totally fine. Ace the dat.

BTW it's BCP not BCPM, math is NOT included.

3.4 is good, the avg. is 3.5 so theres not much discrepency

3.4 GPA and a 20 or higher DAT will def get you interview, no worries

Well, if Math is not included, do I take out Calc, and all my Stats courses also?

I took a look at the ADEA application again. My BCP is in fact a 3.62 (one B in Physics in 2000) so I'm good to go with that. Sorry, I think I got BCPM from aamcas website. Thanks!
