Hi all,
I’m a first time applicant applying to DO schools this cycle. I have one huge concern about my application. My GPA from the university I went to is a 3.47 with a 3.35 sGPA however, I didn’t realize how much of a negative impact the dual credit classes I took in high school would have on my overall GPA. I basically made all Cs and Bs for like 20+ hours worth of credits brining my overall GPA down to a 3.31 and my sGPA down to a 3.14. I’m not entirely sure how to approach this issue and honestly I’ve been working on my secondary applications but I don’t know if it’s even worth the trouble.
A little background: I have a 504 mcat, 140 hours of volunteering, 1200 clinical hours, have shadowed 100 hours and have scribed for a DO. I was also a private tutor and a waitress on and off through college. I also applied broadly (32 schools)
