I will have 8 W's over 250 credits. 2 W's are from my post-bacc program.
 
A scattering of Ws in a close to 4.0 GPA. smells of GPA preservation.

A semester of Ws implies one did exactly what Ws are for.

For some perverse reason, premed seem to think that Ws are worse than Fs
Do you think in my case they will hurt my SMP application? I have 3.49 cGPA and 3.5 sGPA. MCAT comes out Tuesday.
