Er, I might have a BCPM-related problem...

My physics courses and my math courses were transferred into my current school, but they were not transferred in with grades. It's just transfer credit that isn't counted as part of my GPA (for some kind of technicality), but it is counted as part of my credits required to graduate. So my BCPM will currently be calculated on two biology courses and one chemistry course - I have yet to take o-chem and I'm taking general chem 2 this summer.

Does anyone else have a BCPM GPA that is based upon like four or five courses?

you will need to forward to the AMCAS transcripts from ALL colleges you attended. Therefore, those grades will be part of your BCPM.
 
It won't be a problem. Even though your current school doesn't factor your physics/math grades into your GPA, AMCAS will. You just need to send them the transcript from the school where you took them.

Yep. AMCAS doesn't take your school's opinion of your GPA to date. It takes ALL transcripts directly from ALL the schools at which you took courses. Then AMCAS comes up with its own GPA calculation for you.
 
No problem, I did the same thing for O-hem, but hopefully all your Pre-reqs are taken at a 4 year university.
