No GPA on AMCAS

Why don't I see a GPA section on the AMCAS? I know there was one in previous years and it showed your GPA breakdown.

Try choosing "print application." It will show it then. Also, unless you mark that you are finished entering coursework, I don't think it will show it to you.

Printing does not calc GPA. Might after you submit ( around Jun 1) but calcs will all be blank in 2005 version.

Yeah, printing does not show it.

It says right on there that the gpa won't be calculated until they recieve your transcripts and your scores are varified.

AMCAS will not calculate or report a GPA on the 2005 application, this is one of the significant changes. Too many people were "gaming" their numbers and AMCAS did not feel that they could certify the calculation. Sorry, but look on the bright side, at least you get to demonstrate your math skills this year.

How does gaming your numbers work?
