I am posting this thread for new people on this site who might come across some terminology that they dont understand and might be a bit shy to ask, just like i was but being a long time observer i caught on, but still.

now this is random, and please add more if i forget any.

sdn (student doctor network)

OP (original poster...of the thread)

bump (once a comment has been added to a thread, that thread gets "bumped" all the way to the top of that certain forum...its not an insult as somebody thought before lol)

IMO (i think this means in my opinion, but i could be wrong about this)

CDP (Crack DAT Pat, a program used for the perceptual ability on the DAT)

CDR (Crack DAT Reading, a program used for the reading section of the DAT)

TS (if this is among scores then it means total science, however, when you see it floating around and underneath it just scores associated with it then its topscore)

these are the ones that i can think of now, ill add more if i remember them or see something that might need clarification, and if you guys think of any and have seen people use any then please share them.

Hope this helps somebody out there who stumbled upon this site!

DAT forum seems a bit of an odd place for this (pre-dental perhaps?), but whatever.

IMHO (In my honest/humble opinion)
YMMV (your miles may vary)
PBL (problem-based learning)
BCP (Biology Chemistry Physics GPA)

Haha I'm glad you posted this, when I first joined SDN it took me about a month to figure out what OP meant

Hahaha yea bro, the abbreviations on here can be really annoying at first...i was getting so frustrated when i kept seeing bump, bump lol

SMP = special master's program
BCP = bio, chem, physics
GPA = grade point average
sGPA=science grade point average
cGPA=cumulative grade point average
TS=total science
AA=academic average
QR=quantitative reasoning
PAT=perceptual ability test
OC= organic chemistry
GC=general chemistry
WTF=what the f*ck
+1^ = i agree with the above

 

[Arooga]

I finally understand what that means looool
Thanks

just curious...so whats the difference between the GPA and cGPA? is the cGPA your average with out the sciences?
