Do my grades in Post-Bacc Undergraduate classes count towards a cumulative that is looked at? Reason being:

I have a 3.53 BCPM Cumulative, and a 3.61 BCPM Postbacc undergrad, but can't tell if that counts towards whole totals. For me, maybe this counts or is just a point of pride (as my astronomy blowoff class freshman year before I decided to do medicine I think hurt my BCPM), and since some secondaries have you log your own grades; just the year of chem, orgo, physics, and bio requisites are a 3.9 if memory serves.

My undergraduate is a 3.13, and I want to know if effort spent after graduation assists this number.... Is it worth assisting even? I'm trying to come up with a reapplication contingency plan, and don't know if I should focus more on volunteerism or not.

700ish hours as a Peer mentor in college over a few years.
200 hours as a volunteer tutor of basic math for adults looking to reenter the workforce.

MCAT 32, if that helps as well.

Thank you all, I can provide more detail later but I have to run!

All grades, no matter when you got them, count.
 
MY understanding is that all the numbers will be shown.
So a year-by-year breakdown of your undergrad.

Yes, your post-bach undergraduate classes count towards the total. But you will also see a separate category for "post-bach" work. So again, you post-bach dips into two GPA pools, or is broken down into two categories. Post-bach specifically, and then it also is added to the collective total GPA.

Someone please correct me if I am wrong :couchpotato:
 
For AMCAS, if your postbac coursework consists of undergrad classes, the GPA earned will appear on its own line (after Fr, So, JR, SR grades, each on their own line) but will then be included in the calculation of the overall undergrad GPA. Graduate GPA is on its own line too, but is not incorporated into the total.
