I have a question, what dental schools bypass the AADSAS GPA and calculate their own GPA? I am familiar with a couple schools that calculate their own GPA and do not use AADSAS's GPA. I am wondering if anyone knows anymore than the two I am already familiar with.

Thanks

Mind sharing those two with the rest of us?

How would they calculate their own GPA? Some schools put all of your numbers together in some sort of formula, but making another GPA seems a little weird when they have plenty of options from AADSAS.

well... aren't there some schools that don't utilize AADSAS system? I would guess those would be the only ones

If you are referring to schools that DO use the addsas system, I don't think they will/can calculate your GPA unless they have a copy of your transcripts. There are a few schools around that will require the applicant to send in their transcripts (like Detroit Mercy) but its not to calculate your GPA, its to see how heavy of a load your semesters were.
