I would like to know if a 4.08 post bacc gpa with 20 credits(by end of summer its going to be 26 credits with a 4.14 gpa) is going to suffice a 2.8 undergrad gpa?
 
I have a post-bacc GPA of 3.97 from 43 credits taken over 3 quarters, with a science GPA of 2.91, and I got into the 2 schools I interviewed at!
I think you should get your credits up to the 30+ range bc that's about a whole year on a semester system

So 26 credits is not competitive enough?
 
A+ are no longer counted as 4.3, so you can't have a post-bacc GPA higher than 4.0.

And I think it depends on the kinds of classes you're taking- if you're doing lower division classes and getting A+s, schools will not look favorably upon that. If you're doing upper division courses and doing well, then 26-30 units may be enough.
