Hey, everyone! I always wondered how the OTCAS GPA is calculated with retake courses. So, at my university, I retook two courses; first I got C's in them then I got A's. My university does not count the C's into my GPA since I retook the courses. Next to the first attempt of the course on my transcript, there is 0.00 points added and an E for excluded in GPA. When OTCAS calculates my GPA, do they also not include those C's into my GPA since my university didn't?

I think OTCAS GPA factors in all courses taken and does not replace a retake. Some schools might allow a repeat, but you might have to send the transcripts individually. These schools might be non-otcas programs.
