GPA For Applying

[route99]

Hi! I was wondering when applying to med school, do they see the GPA of your primary institution of where I got my bachelor's from, or all college courses you've taken? Also, if it's on a +/- scale do they convert it to any A being weighed the same?
Thanks!

1) I was wondering when applying to med school, do they see the GPA of your primary institution of where I got my bachelor's from, or all college courses you've taken?

1) They see your GPAs (BCPM GPA, AO GPA, cGPA) year-by-year for each college year, but not your bachelors institution cumulative final GPAs. There is another line for postbac undergrad. And another yet for grad school grades. All undergrad grades whether college or postbac are calculated together.

2) A+ and A are weighted the same with AMCAS; A- is weighted less. With TMDSAS all A level grades are given the weight of an A.
