So if i take classes during my MS that are undergrad courses does amcas count those toward my undergrad GPA?
So i should just close out my undergrad already and just receive my diploma because my post-bacc grades will be added to my uGPA?Post bac grades are added into undergrad grades, Master's grades are not.
Did you calculate your AMCAS gpa yet?
There are so few applicants from the SJV that someone like OP (if they can show evidence that they will succeed) will get a lot of attention in CA schools, esp. UCD.
Yes, they will be added, and they will be seen in a separate line (by year).So i should just close out my undergrad already and just receive my diploma because my post-bacc grades will be added to my uGPA?
A sustained period in which you maintain high scores along with a strong MCAT will go along way in calming nervous admissions committee members. How long and how many units will vary in the eye of the beholder.@gyngyn Thanks for your replies. I have a ton of units from my undergrad so after this semester if i manage to pull off a gpa >3.85 i would have a 3.22 cGPA and a 3.23 sGPA with a total of 24 post-bacc credits. After that every 12 units of >3.85 would only increase my gpa by .04. Given my lackluster undergrad GPA, is my post-bacc gpa more for improving the number or should i try to reach 36-48 units to show that I can sustain a high GPA?
Im asking this because after next semester, if i do well, i will already be in the 3.2 range or if i complete 36 units with a 3.85 I will have a cGPA of 3.29 and a sGPA of 3.33. I know i shouldn't count my chickens but its what gives me hope. I'm 1/3 of the way there though with 4.0 in my first 12 units. Also would it look better if i took more than 12 units?
Yeah during my shadowing today i met a lot of hispanics who would tell me about the lack of hispanic doctors in the area. thanks for the info and reply. Im hoping UCD will give me a chance with a 3.3/3.35 and a 32+ mcat. still a lot of work to do before then though
Here's a phrase I've never seen before!Also if you are looking DO I believe that AT Still SOMA has a 3rd/4th year site in the greater Delano area - something I am interested in also.
