I havent received all of my grades yet for the semester. But, I know that I didnt get all A's. Not meaning to be a troll about it, but I know most people expect post baccers to get like a 4.0 and I just couldnt do it. I dont know what I will end up with overall.

What is considered a good gpa in post bacc besides a 4.0 gpa???? Anyone?

I may end up with a 3.48 gpa but I am still not sure? Its all about what I get in physics. Urghh, physics.... if physics works out well then maybe even a 3.52 gpa. Who knows?
 
It all depends on your previous academic record. If you're in a post-bac because you had a 2.0 in college, then getting a 4.0 is probably pretty vital. If you were a pretty good student in college, and are doing the post-bac to fill in some pre-reqs, or to boost your gpa, you're probalby OK with a 3.5, especially for DO schools.
 
Hi,

Well, I have a BA in Philosophy, Politics and Law from a top state university and graduated with a 3.3. So, no, i didnt graduate with a 2.0 but at the same time, I would still like a 4.0 and I just couldnt get my gpa up there. I am still going to try my hardest next semester so keep up at least a 3.5 but all in all, its a disappointment.
