If a student came in with a low transfer-gpa through dual-enrollment credit courses taken in high school, will this be a major factor in decision? Or is the cumulative GPA only taken into account?
 
All grades are calculated for your AMCAS GPA, including dual-enrollment classes from high school. At least you will be able to show an upward trend.

Yea, you need to report all grades taken at college level at all institutions. So your dual enrollment grades will hurt you.

But they're dual enrollment and you can explain that in the app. Itll probably be fine, just a weird side effect of how amcas works
