Ohright so I'll bite TwoSteveSquared:
Here's the deal. You come on and ask "Since econ is very math intesive, anyone think its o.k. to classify it as math? I know UCLA counts it as a math class in fulfilling math prereq. What about accounting/management?"
I think from everyone's replies and the fact that we have both looked it up on the AMCAS web-site you know the answer to your question--Econ is not a part of the BCPM, as you indicated in your reply.
As for me, yes I got A's in all of my econ classes--perhaps I should have gone into business. However, I never even considered padding my GPA with my non-science courses. Your insinuation that I would include non-BCPM courses in my science GPA if I had received grades similar to yours simply to give me the edge is not a correct one. That was your move.
In regards to the "not great person comment," it was made more in reference to the attitude that many pre-meds take towards getting into medical school and even once they are there. I think very highly of this profession and have sacrificed too much, as everyone else, to stand by and constantly watch people who are looking to stroke their ego enter it and quite simply make it foul. I am not saying that this is your motive or intention--I don't know you, just as you do not know me.
But from the response you made it seems that your intention was to stretch the rules, so that they would put your application in a better light. You were only looking for validation and perhaps support. So I apologize if you are sensitive, but perhaps in the future it would not be a poor move to consider just what it is that you are asking.
Now hopefully, this won't continue in a pissing match as so many of the threads on this bulletin board. In fact, I think I have said enough and hope that you will take some time and think about the ideas I have attepted to convey, because that was my intention, to make you think, not engage you in childish babble.
I hope that we can someday be proud colleagues, not bitter practitioners.
Peace
