I am just finishing my first year of a MS in microbiology and am taking a few extraneous premed classes I failed to take in my undergrad (Physics I and II). The big question I have concerns my GPA and BCPM of these classes.

I know that the graduate level classes factor into their own part on the AMCAS application, but how do undergraduate classes taken as a graduate student work? They do not count for my degree (they wont even be listed on my application to graduate).

Thank you in advance for any help, the entire graduate undergraduate distinction is very undefined.
 
We had a nontrad post about this a few years back. The gist, as I recall, is that undergrad courses that count toward your grad work are problematic, otherwise they are normal undergrad work and are listed as such on AMCAS.

You'll want to look this up in the official AMCAS instructions, which are quite thorough and useful.

Best of luck to you.
 
Very cool, thank you very much. This will be very good for my GPA and BCPM.
